Full-Spectrum Quantum Simulation for the Nuclear Shell Model

B. Maheshwari, P. Stevenson, P. Van Isacker

The nuclear shell model is a general way of expressing the many-body nuclear Hamiltonian and deciphering the underlying nuclear structure. In today's era of modern and high-power c…

The role of the surface energy in nuclear octupole excitations

Khlood Alharthi, Paul Stevenson

Octupole excitations of atomic nuclei can be viewed as fluctuations around an equilibrium shape. These fluctuations in turn can be seen as probes of nuclear matter properties to th…

Single-step Quantum Simulation of Two Nucleons

Bhoomika Maheshwari, Paul Stevenson, P. Van Isacker

Quantum computing offers a scalable approach to solving the nuclear shell model, a highly complex and exponentially scaled many-body problem. This work presents a numerical simulat…

From Classical to Quantum Machine Learning: Different Approaches in Fission Barrier Height Estimation

Serkan Akkoyun, Cafer Mert Yeşilkanat, Paul Stevenson

The fission barrier energy is a fundamental property of nuclear structure that governs the stability of nuclei against fission, directly affecting their spontaneous fission half-li…

A low-circuit-depth quantum computing approach to the nuclear shell model

Chandan Sarma, Paul Stevenson

In this work, we introduce a new qubit mapping strategy for the Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) applied to nuclear shell model calculations, where each Slater determinant (SD…

The -particle condensation in diluted at finite temperature

M. Davies, E. Yüksel, J. -P. Ebran +2

We investigate the effect of temperature on -particle clustering in the diluted nucleus using the multi-constrained finite-temperature relativistic Hartree-Bogo…
