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…

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…

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…

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…
