Over the last decade, new developments in Similarity Renormalization Group techniques
and nuclear many-body methods have dramatically increased the capabilities of ab initio …

The nuclear shell model has perhaps been the most important conceptual and
computational paradigm for the understanding of the structure of atomic nuclei. While the …

What is the size of the atomic nucleus? This deceivably simple question is difficult to answer.
Although the electric charge distributions in atomic nuclei were measured accurately already …

We present a comprehensive review of the In-Medium Similarity Renormalization Group (IM-
SRG), a novel ab initio method for nuclei. The IM-SRG employs a continuous unitary …

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 …

The region of heavy calcium isotopes forms the frontier of experimental and theoretical
nuclear structure research where the basic concepts of nuclear physics are put to stringent …

Recent advances in nuclear structure theory have significantly enlarged the accessible part
of the nuclear landscape via ab initio many-body calculations. These developments open …

Atomic nuclei are composed of a certain number of protons Z and neutrons N. A natural
question is how large Z and N can be. The study of superheavy elements explores the large …

Single-reference coupled-cluster theory is an accurate and affordable computational method
for the nuclear many-body problem. For open-shell nuclei, the reference state typically …

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 …
