Improved quasiparticle nuclear Hamiltonians for quantum computing
Emanuele Costa, Javier Menendez
Quantum computing is increasingly offering concrete solutions toward the simulation of nuclear structure, with the potential to overcome the exponential scaling that limits classic…
First glimpse of the shell closure below from masses of neutron-rich cadmium isotopes and isomers
V. Manea, J. Karthein, D. Atanasov +18
We probe the nuclear shell closure by mass measurements of neutron-rich cadmium isotopes with the ISOLTRAP spectrometer at ISOLDE-CERN. The new mass of Cd offers the…
Electromagnetic properties of O for benchmarking nuclear Hamiltonians
S. Heil, M. Petri, K. Vobig +25
The structure of exotic nuclei provides valuable tests for state-of-the-art nuclear theory. In particular electromagnetic transition rates are more sensitive to aspects of nuclear…
Nuclear forces and their impact on neutron-rich nuclei and neutron-rich matter
K. Hebeler, J. D. Holt, J. Menendez +1
We review the impact of nuclear forces on matter at neutron-rich extremes. Recent results have shown that neutron-rich nuclei become increasingly sensitive to three-nucleon forces,…
Exploring sd-shell nuclei from two- and three-nucleon interactions with realistic saturation properties
J. Simonis, K. Hebeler, J. D. Holt +2
We study ground- and excited-state properties of all sd-shell nuclei with neutron and proton numbers 8 <= N,Z <= 20, based on a set of low-resolution two- and three-nucleon interac…
Ground-State Electromagnetic Moments of Calcium Isotopes
R. F. Garcia Ruiz, M. L. Bissell, K. Blaum +15
High-resolution bunched-beam collinear laser spectroscopy was used to measure the optical hyperfine spectra of the Ca isotopes. The ground state magnetic moments of $^{49…
Nuclear structure aspects of spin-independent WIMP scattering off xenon
L. Vietze, P. Klos, J. Menéndez +2
We study the structure factors for spin-independent WIMP scattering off xenon based on state-of-the-art large-scale shell-model calculations, which are shown to yield a good spectr…
Breakdown of the Isobaric Multiplet Mass Equation for the A = 20 and 21 Multiplets
A. T. Gallant, M. Brodeur, C. Andreoiu +21
Using the Penning trap mass spectrometer TITAN, we performed the first direct mass measurements of 20,21Mg, isotopes that are the most proton-rich members of the A = 20 and A = 21…
Signatures of Dark Matter Scattering Inelastically Off Nuclei
L. Baudis, G. Kessler, P. Klos +4
Direct dark matter detection focuses on elastic scattering of dark matter particles off nuclei. In this study, we explore inelastic scattering where the nucleus is excited to a low…
New precision mass measurements of neutron-rich calcium and potassium isotopes and three-nucleon forces
A. T. Gallant, J. C. Bale, T. Brunner +18
We present precision Penning-trap mass measurements of neutron-rich calcium and potassium isotopes in the vicinity of neutron number N=32. Using the TITAN system the mass of $^{51}…
Chiral two-body currents in nuclei: Gamow-Teller transitions and neutrinoless double-beta decay
J. Menéndez, D. Gazit, A. Schwenk
We show that chiral effective field theory (EFT) two-body currents provide important contributions to the quenching of low-momentum-transfer Gamow-Teller transitions, and use chira…
Disassembling the Nuclear Matrix Elements of the Neutrinoless double beta Decay
J. Menéndez, A. Poves, E. Caurier +1
In this article we analyze the nuclear matrix elements (NME) of the neutrinoless double beta decays of the nuclei 48-Ca, 76-Ge, 82-Se, 124-Sn, 130-Te and 136-Xe in the framework of…
