Accurate Charge Radius Measurement of C Confronts Ab Initio Theory

Kristian König, Patrick Müller, Tobias Gesser +11

Located at the neutron shell closure , the long-lived radioactive isotope C plays a critical role in geochronology and nuclear structure studies. Despite its widespre…

Probing the Size of Neutron and Proton Single-Particle Orbitals from Nucleon Knockout Reactions

M. Enciu, A. Obertelli, P. Doornenbal +83

The size of neutron and proton single-particle orbitals of Ca, Ca, Ca, and Sc were investigated via nucleon knockout reactions at 230 MeV/nucleon…

Laser spectroscopy illuminates the shell closure

Tim E. Lellinger, Liss V. Rodriguez, Patrick Muller +29

Atomic nuclei are strongly correlated quantum many-body systems, and how their shell structure evolves with increasing neutron excess remains a central open question in nuclear phy…

Ab initio calculations of parity-violating electron scattering off Ca and Pb

Frederic Noël, Matthias Heinz, Martin Hoferichter +2

Parity-violating electron scattering off nuclei both serves as a low-energy precision probe to test electroweak interactions and allows one to access neutron distributions inside n…

Saturation of Nuclear Binding from Lattice Hamiltonians

Maxwell Rothman, Gaute Hagen, Matthias Heinz +1

There is a conundrum regarding the binding of particles in nuclei. On one hand, auxiliary-field Monte Carlo simulations of Hamiltonians on discrete spatial lattices proposed th…

Nuclear charge radii of aluminium isotopes at the proton drip line

Alex Brinson, Brooke Rickey, Pierre Arthuis +35

Understanding the evolution of nuclear size away from stability remains a central challenge in nuclear physics. In neutron-deficient systems, charge radii can be highly sensitive t…

Taming nuclear size and shape effects in superallowed beta-decay

Bingcheng He, Mikhail Gorchtein, Matthias Heinz +3

We present the first combined analysis of the statistical rate function f in superallowed beta decays with ab initio calculations and data. We focus on C10 to 10B, 14O to 14N and 2…

Uncertainties with low-resolution nuclear forces

Tom Plies, Matthias Heinz, Achim Schwenk

Low-resolution nuclear Hamiltonians, obtained from chiral effective field theory (EFT) and softened using renormalization group techniques, have been very successful in nuclear str…

The nuclear charge radius of

Patrick Müller, Matthias Heinz, Phillip Imgram +6

The size is a key property of a nucleus. Accurate nuclear radii are extracted from elastic electron scattering, laser spectroscopy, and muonic atom spectroscopy. The results are no…

Toward scalable quantum computations of atomic nuclei

Chenyi Gu, Matthias Heinz, Oriel Kiss +1

We solve the nuclear two-body and three-body bound states via quantum simulations of pionless effective field theory on a lattice in position space. While the employed lattice rema…

Connecting Relativistic Density Functional Theory to Microscopic Calculations

Brendan T. Reed, Matthias Heinz, Pierre Arthuis +2

The development of systematic effective field theories (EFTs) for nuclear forces and advances in solving the nuclear many-body problem have greatly improved our understanding of de…

Ab initio calculations of overlap integrals for conversion in nuclei

Matthias Heinz, Martin Hoferichter, Takayuki Miyagi +2

The rate for conversion in nuclei is set to provide the most stringent test of lepton-flavor symmetry and a window into physics beyond the Standard Model. However, to dise…

Probing new bosons and nuclear structure with ytterbium isotope shifts

Menno Door, Chih-Han Yeh, Matthias Heinz +24

In this Letter, we present mass-ratio measurements on highly charged Yb ions with a precision of and isotope-shift measurements on Yb on the …
