Radiative strength functions from the energy-localized Brink-Axel hypothesis
Oliver C. Gorton, Konstantinos Kravvaris, Jutta E. Escher +1
Radiative strength functions (RSFs) model the bulk electromagnetic response of highly-excited nuclei and are critical inputs for statistical reaction codes. In this paper, we prese…

A weak entanglement approximation for nuclear structure: a progress report
Calvin W. Johnson, Oliver C. Gorton
We report on a recently proposed approach, inspired by quantum informationtheory, for calculating low-energy nuclear structure in the framework of the configuration-interaction she…

Weak entanglement approximation for nuclear structure
Oliver C. Gorton, Calvin W. Johnson
The interacting shell model, a configuration-interaction method, is a venerable approach for low-lying nuclear structure calculations; but it is hampered by the exponential growth…
