From spin to pseudospin symmetry: The origin of magic numbers in nuclear structure
C. R. Ding, C. C. Wang, J. M. Yao +3
Magic numbers lie at the heart of nuclear structure, reflecting enhanced stability in nuclei with closed shells. While the emergence of magic numbers beyond 20 is commonly attribut…

Ab initio nuclear shape coexistence and emergence of island of inversion around
E. F. Zhou, C. R. Ding, J. M. Yao +4
We extend a nuclear ab initio framework based on chiral two- and three-nucleon interactions to investigate shape coexistence and the degradation of the magic number in both…

Ab Initio Treatment of Collective Correlations and the Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay of Ca
J. M. Yao, B. Bally, J. Engel +3
Working with Hamiltonians from chiral effective field theory, we develop a novel framework for describing arbitrary deformed medium-mass nuclei by combining the in-medium similarit…
