Accurate bulk properties of nuclei from to from potentials with isobars

WG Jiang, A Ekström, C Forssén, G Hagen, GR Jansen… - Physical Review C, 2020 - APS

We introduce new semilocal two-nucleon potentials up to fifth order in the chiral expansion.
We employ a simple regularization approach for the pion exchange contributions which i) …

Precision nucleon-nucleon potential at fifth order in the chiral expansion

E Epelbaum, H Krebs, UG Meißner - Physical review letters, 2015 - APS
We present a nucleon-nucleon potential at fifth order in chiral effective field theory. We find a
substantial improvement in the description of nucleon-nucleon phase shifts as compared to …
