The nuclear matrix elements that govern the rate of neutrinoless double beta decay must be
accurately calculated if experiments are to reach their full potential. Theorists have been …

The atomic nucleus is a quantum many-body system whose constituent nucleons (protons
and neutrons) are subject to complex nucleon-nucleon interactions that include spin-and …

Shape coexistence in nuclei appears to be unique in the realm of finite many-body quantum
systems. It differs from the various geometrical arrangements that sometimes occur in a …

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 …

Atomic nuclei are finite quantum systems composed of two distinct types of fermion—protons
and neutrons. In a manner similar to that of electrons orbiting in an atom, protons and …

Relativistic energy density functionals (EDF) have become a standard tool for nuclear
structure calculations, providing a complete and accurate, global description of nuclear …

Nowadays, the Gogny force is a referent in the theoretical description of nuclear structure
phenomena. Its phenomenological character manifests in a simple analytical form that …

We present an extensive study of nuclear matrix elements (NME) for the neutrinoless double-
beta decay of the nuclei Ca 48, Ge 76, Se 82, Zr 96, Mo 100, Cd 116, Sn 124, Te 128, Te …

We review the impact of nuclear forces on matter at neutron-rich extremes. Recent results
have shown that neutron-rich nuclei become increasingly sensitive to three-nucleon forces …

We present the first implementation in the (β, γ) plane of the generator coordinate method
with full triaxial angular momentum and particle number projected wave functions using the …
