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…

Quadrupole moments and proton-neutron structure in p-shell mirror nuclei

M. A. Caprio, P. J. Fasano, P. Maris +1

Electric quadrupole (E2) matrix elements provide a measure of nuclear deformation and related collective structure. Ground-state quadrupole moments in particular are known to high…

Rotational bands beyond the Elliott model

Ryan Zbikowski, Calvin W. Johnson, Anna E. McCoy +2

Rotational bands are commonplace in the spectra of atomic nuclei. Inspired by early descriptions of these bands by quadrupole deformations of a liquid drop, Elliott constructed a d…

Microscopic investigation of the Li()Li reaction

Callum McCracken, Petr Navratil, Anna McCoy +2

The Li()Li reaction plays an important role in several astrophysics scenarios. It cannot be measured directly and indirect experiments have so far provided only cross…

Emergent Sp(3,R) dynamical symmetry in the nuclear many-body system from an ab initio description

A. E. McCoy, M. A. Caprio, T. Dytrych +1

Ab initio nuclear theory provides not only a microscopic framework for quantitative description of the nuclear many-body system, but also a foundation for deeper understanding of e…
