The discovery of neutrinoless β β decay could soon be within reach. This hypothetical
ultrarare nuclear decay offers a privileged portal to physics beyond the standard model of …

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 …

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

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 …

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 …

Neutrino–nuclear responses associated with astro-neutrinos, single beta decays and double
beta decays are crucial in studies of neutrino properties of interest for astro-particle physics …

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 …

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 …

In this review the quenching of the weak axial-vector coupling strength, g A, is discussed in
nuclear β and double-β decays. On one hand, the nuclear-medium and nuclear many-body …
