Neutron elastic scattering on calcium isotopes from chiral nuclear optical potentials
T. R. Whitehead, Y. Lim, J. W. Holt
We formulate microscopic neutron-nucleus optical potentials from many-body perturbation theory based on chiral two- and three-body forces. The neutron self energy is first calculat…
Microscopic optical potential from chiral effective field theory
T. R. Whitehead, Y. Lim, J. W. Holt
We formulate a microscopic optical potential from chiral two- and three-body forces. The real and imaginary central terms of the optical potential are obtained from the nucleon sel…
Enhanced adiabatic index for hot neutron-rich matter from microscopic nuclear forces
Yeunhwan Lim, Jeremy W. Holt
We investigate the adiabatic index of hot and dense nuclear matter from chiral effective field theory and find that the results are systematically larger than fro…
Dense matter equation of state and neutron star properties from nuclear theory and experiment
Jeremy W. Holt, Yeunhwan Lim
The equation of state of dense matter determines the structure of neutron stars, their typical radii, and maximum masses. Recent improvements in theoretical modeling of nuclear for…
Bayesian modeling of the nuclear equation of state for neutron star tidal deformabilities and GW170817
Y. Lim, J. W. Holt
We present predictions for neutron star tidal deformabilities obtained from a Bayesian analysis of the nuclear equation of state, assuming a minimal model at high-density that negl…
