Halo Nuclei from Ab Initio Nuclear Theory
Petr Navratil, Sofia Quaglioni, Guillaume Hupin +2
A realistic description of halo nuclei, characterized by low-lying breakup thresholds, requires a proper treatment of continuum effects. We have developed an ab initio approach, th…
Tunable-fidelity wave functions for the \textit{ab initio} description of scattering and reactions
Konstantinos Kravvaris, Sofia Quaglioni, Petr Navratil
The no-core shell model (NCSM) is an \textit{ab initio} method that solves the nuclear many-body problem by expanding the many-particle wave function into a (typically) harmonic os…
Towards Precision Muonic X-Ray Measurements of Charge Radii of Light Nuclei
Ben Ohayon, Andreas Abeln, Silvia Bara +20
We propose an experiment to measure the nuclear charge radii of light elements with up to 20~times higher accuracy. These are essential both for understanding nuclear physics at lo…
Origin of the anomalous long lifetime of 14C
P. Maris, J. P. Vary, P. Navratil +3
We report the microscopic origins of the anomalously suppressed beta decay of 14C to 14N using the ab initio no-core shell model (NCSM) with the Hamiltonian from chiral effective f…
Evolving Nuclear Many-Body Forces with the Similarity Renormalization Group
E. D. Jurgenson, P. Navratil, R. J. Furnstahl
In recent years, the Similarity Renormalization Group has provided a powerful and versatile means to soften interactions for ab initio nuclear calculations. The substantial contrib…
Evolution of Nuclear Many-Body Forces with the Similarity Renormalization Group
E. D. Jurgenson, P. Navratil, R. J. Furnstahl
The first practical method to evolve many-body nuclear forces to softened form using the Similarity Renormalization Group (SRG) in a harmonic oscillator basis is demonstrated. When…
