The nuclear-physics landscape has been redesigned as a sequence of effective field
theories (EFTs) connected to the standard model through symmetries and lattice simulations …

Quantum Chromodynamics, the theory of quarks and gluons, whose interactions can be
described by a local SU (3) gauge symmetry with charges called “color quantum numbers” …

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) …

We present NN potentials through five orders of chiral effective field theory ranging from
leading order (LO) to next-to-next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N 4 LO). The construction …

With the goal of develo** predictive ab initio capability for light and medium-mass nuclei,
two-nucleon and three-nucleon forces from chiral effective field theory are optimized …

We present improved nucleon-nucleon potentials derived in chiral effective field theory up to
next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order. We argue that the nonlocal momentum-space …

Quantum Monte Carlo methods have proved valuable to study the structure and reactions of
light nuclei and nucleonic matter starting from realistic nuclear interactions and currents …

We review how nuclear forces emerge from low-energy QCD via chiral effective field theory.
The presentation is accessible to the non-specialist. At the same time, we also provide …

In the past decade, coupled-cluster theory has seen a renaissance in nuclear physics, with
computations of neutron-rich and medium-mass nuclei. The method is efficient for nuclei …

Effective field theory allows for a systematic and model-independent derivation of the forces
between nucleons in harmony with the symmetries of quantum chromodynamics. The …
