Neutron elastic scattering on calcium isotopes from chiral nuclear optical potentials
T. R. Whitehead, Y. Lim, J. W. Holt
We formulate microscopic neutron-nucleus optical potentials from many-body perturbation theory based on chiral two- and three-body forces. The neutron self energy is first calculat…

Bayesian modeling of the nuclear equation of state for neutron star tidal deformabilities and GW170817
Y. Lim, J. W. Holt
We present predictions for neutron star tidal deformabilities obtained from a Bayesian analysis of the nuclear equation of state, assuming a minimal model at high-density that negl…

Proton elastic scattering on calcium isotopes from chiral nuclear optical potentials
T. R. Whitehead, Y. Lim, J. W. Holt
We formulate microscopic optical potentials for nucleon-nucleus scattering from chiral two- and three-nucleon forces. The real and imaginary central terms of the optical potentials…
