Symplectic no-core configuration interaction framework for nuclear structure

Anna E. McCoy, Mark A. Caprio, Patrick J. Fasano +1

We present the symplectic no-core configuration interaction (SpNCCI) framework, in which the nuclear many-body problem is solved a symmetry-adapted basis that explicitly encodes ap…

Intruder band mixing in an ab initio description of 12Be

Anna E. McCoy, Mark A. Caprio, Pieter Maris +1

The spectrum of 12Be exhibits exotic features, e.g., an intruder ground state and shape coexistence, normally associated with the breakdown of a shell closure. While previous pheno…

Nuclear decay as a probe for physics beyond the Standard Model

M. Brodeur, N. Buzinsky, M. A. Caprio +43

This white paper was submitted to the 2022 Fundamental Symmetries, Neutrons, and Neutrinos (FSNN) Town Hall Meeting in preparation for the next NSAC Long Range Plan. We advocate to…

Symmetry and shape coexistence in 10Be

M. A. Caprio, A. E. McCoy, P. J. Fasano +1

Within the low-lying spectrum of 10Be, multiple rotational bands are found, with strikingly different moments of inertia. A proposed interpretation has been that these bands variou…

First Measurement of the Transition Strength in Be: Testing Ab Initio Predictions for Nuclei

S. L. Henderson, T. Ahn, M. A. Caprio +15

Electromagnetic observables are able to give insight into collective and emergent features in nuclei, including nuclear clustering. These observables also provide strong constraint…

Remeasuring the anomalously enhanced in

S. L. Henderson, T. Ahn, P. J. Fasano +14

The large reported strength between the ground state and first excited state of $\isotope[8]{Li}$, $B(E2; 2^+ \rightarrow 1^+)= 55(15)\,e^2\fm^4$, presents a puzzl…
