Two-body currents at finite momentum transfer and applications to M1 transitions
C. Brase, T. Miyagi, J. Menéndez +1
We explore the impact of two-body currents (2BCs) at finite momentum transfer with a focus on magnetic dipole properties in Ca and Ti. To this end, we derive a multip…
The XLZD Design Book: Towards the Next-Generation Liquid Xenon Observatory for Dark Matter and Neutrino Physics
XLZD Collaboration, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +441
This report describes the experimental strategy and technologies for XLZD, the next-generation xenon observatory sensitive to dark matter and neutrino physics. In the baseline desi…
Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay Sensitivity of the XLZD Rare Event Observatory
XLZD Collaboration, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +441
The XLZD collaboration is developing a two-phase xenon time projection chamber with an active mass of 60 to 80 t capable of probing the remaining WIMP-nucleon interaction parameter…
A pathway to unveiling neutrinoless decay nuclear matrix elements via decay
Beatriz Romeo, Damiano Stramaccioni, Javier Menéndez +1
We investigate the experimental feasibility of detecting second-order double-magnetic dipole (-) decays from double isobaric analog states (DIAS), which have recently b…
Entropy-driven entanglement forging
Axel Pérez-Obiol, Sergi Masot-Llima, Antonio M. Romero +4
Simulating physical systems with variational quantum algorithms is a well-studied approach, but it is challenging to implement in current devices due to demands in qubit number and…
Shell-model study of Si: coexistence of oblate, prolate and superdeformed shapes
Dorian Frycz, Javier Menéndez, Arnau Rios +3
We study the shape coexistence in the nucleus Si with the nuclear shell model using numerical diagonalizations complemented with variational calculations based on the projec…
