Quantum Monte Carlo methods for nuclear physics
J. Carlson, S. Gandolfi, F. Pederiva +4
Quantum Monte Carlo methods have proved very valuable to study the structure and reactions of light nuclei and nucleonic matter starting from realistic nuclear interactions and cur…
Hyperon Puzzle: Hints from Quantum Monte Carlo Calculations
Diego Lonardoni, Alessandro Lovato, Stefano Gandolfi +1
The onset of hyperons in the core of neutron stars and the consequent softening of the equation of state have been questioned for a long time. Controversial theoretical predictions…
Using Neutron Star Observations to Determine Crust Thicknesses, Moments of Inertia, and Tidal Deformabilities
Andrew W. Steiner, Stefano Gandolfi, Farrukh J. Fattoyev +1
We perform a systematic assessment of models for the equation of state (EOS) of dense matter in the context of recent neutron star mass and radius measurements to obtain a broad pi…
Accurate determination of the interaction between hyperons and nucleons from auxiliary field diffusion Monte Carlo calculations
Diego Lonardoni, Francesco Pederiva, Stefano Gandolfi
An accurate assessment of the hyperon-nucleon interaction is of great interest in view of recent observations of very massive neutron stars. The challenge is to build a realistic i…
