Monte Carlo methods and applications for the nuclear shell model
D. J. Dean, J. A. White
The shell-model Monte Carlo (SMMC) technique transforms the traditional nuclear shell-model problem into a path-integral over auxiliary fields. We describe below the method and its…
Competition of electron capture and beta-decay rates in supernova collapse
G. Martinez-Pinedo, K. Langanke, D. J. Dean
We calculate supernova electron capture and beta decay rates for various pf-shell nuclei using large-scale shell model techniques. We show that the centroid of the Gamow-Teller str…
Orderly spectra from random interactions
C. W. Johnson, G. F. Bertsch, D. J. Dean
We investigate the low-lying spectra of many-body systems with random two-body interactions, specifying that the ensemble be invariant under particle-hole conjugation.Surprisingly…
Electron capture on iron group nuclei
D. J. Dean, K. Langanke, L. Chatterjee +2
We present Gamow-Teller strength distributions from shell model Monte Carlo studies of fp-shell nuclei that may play an important role in the pre-collapse evolution of supernovae.…
