Topical issue on the intersection of low-energy nuclear structure and high-energy nuclear collisions
T. Duguet, G. Giacalone, V. Somà +1
High-energy heavy-ion physics and low-energy nuclear structure physics have historically been disconnected fields. The hydrodynamic description of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) requ…
Direct proton transfer on Ar supports the presence of a charge density bubble linked to a novel nuclear structure below Ca
Daniele Brugnara, Andrea Gottardo, Marlene Assiè +76
The Ar(He,d)K reaction was performed in inverse kinematics using a radioactive Ar beam produced by the SPIRAL1 facility at GANIL and a cryogenic He t…
Anisotropic flow in fixed-target Pb+Ne collisions as a probe of quark-gluon plasma
Giuliano Giacalone, Wenbin Zhao, Benjamin Bally +19
The System for Measuring Overlap with Gas (SMOG2) at the LHCb detector enables the study of fixed-target ion-ion collisions at relativistic energies ( GeV…
Deformed natural orbitals for ab initio calculations
Alberto Scalesi, Thomas Duguet, Mikael Frosini +1
The rapid development of ab initio nuclear structure methods towards doubly open-shell nuclei, heavy nuclei and greater accuracy occurs at the price of evermore increased computati…
Imaging the initial condition of heavy-ion collisions and nuclear structure across the nuclide chart
Jiangyong Jia, Giuliano Giacalone, Benjamin Bally +18
High-energy nuclear collisions encompass three key stages: the structure of the colliding nuclei informed by low-energy nuclear physics, the initial condition (IC) leading to the f…
Impact of correlations on nuclear binding energies
Alberto Scalesi, Thomas Duguet, Pepijn Demol +3
A strong effort will be dedicated in the coming years to extend the reach of ab initio nuclear-structure calculations to heavy doubly open-shell nuclei. In order to do so, the most…
