Ab Initio Limits of Atomic Nuclei

SR Stroberg, JD Holt, A Schwenk, J Simonis - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
We predict the limits of existence of atomic nuclei, the proton and neutron drip lines, from the
light through medium-mass regions. Starting from a chiral two-and three-nucleon interaction …

Nuclear Charge Radii of the Nickel Isotopes

S Malbrunot-Ettenauer, S Kaufmann, S Bacca… - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
Collinear laser spectroscopy is performed on the nickel isotopes Ni 58-68, 70, using a time-
resolved photon counting system. From the measured isotope shifts, nuclear charge radii R …

Nuclear shell-model simulation in digital quantum computers

A Pérez-Obiol, AM Romero, J Menéndez, A Rios… - Scientific Reports, 2023 - nature.com
The nuclear shell model is one of the prime many-body methods to study the structure of
atomic nuclei, but it is hampered by an exponential scaling on the basis size as the number …

Nuclear moments of indium isotopes reveal abrupt change at magic number 82

AR Vernon, RF Garcia Ruiz, T Miyagi, CL Binnersley… - Nature, 2022 - nature.com
In spite of the high-density and strongly correlated nature of the atomic nucleus,
experimental and theoretical evidence suggests that around particular 'magic'numbers of …

Ab Initio Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay Matrix Elements for , , and

A Belley, CG Payne, SR Stroberg, T Miyagi, JD Holt - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
We calculate basis-space converged neutrinoless β β-decay nuclear matrix elements for the
lightest candidates: Ca 48, Ge 76, and Se 82. Starting from initial two-and three-nucleon …

Surprising Charge-Radius Kink in the Sc Isotopes at

K König, S Fritzsche, G Hagen, JD Holt, A Klose… - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
Charge radii of neutron deficient Sc 40 and Sc 41 nuclei were determined using collinear
laser spectroscopy. With the new data, the chain of Sc charge radii extends below the …
