The authors review the present status of self-consistent mean-field (SCMF) models for describing nuclear structure and low-energy dynamics. These models are presented as effective energy-density functionals. The three most widely used variants of…

Nuclear Physics is the branch of physics that deals with the properties and structure of matter on the hadronic level. In this article we review briefly the history of this field, which has a major role in the development of our understanding of…

This paper is the second part of the new evaluation of atomic masses Image 2003. From the results of a least-squares calculation described in Part I for all accepted experimental data, we derive here tables and graphs to replace those of 1993. The…

G4 is a toolkit for simulating the passage of particles through matter. It includes a complete range of functionality including tracking, geometry, physics models and hits. The physics processes offered cover a comprehensive range, including…

We present a new high-quality nucleon-nucleon potential with explicit charge dependence and charge asymmetry, which we designate Argonne v18. The model has a charge-independent part with fourteen operator components that is an updated version of the…
-
A review of perturbative many-body descriptions of several nuclear systems is presented in this report. Examples of systems considered are symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter and finite nuclei with few valence particles.
-
Effective field theory allows for a systematic and model-independent derivation of the forces between nucleons in harmony with the symmetries of Quantum Chromodynamics. We review the foundations of this approach and discuss its application for light…

The dissipation induced by coulomb-collisional scattering provides an irreducible minimum, and thus a useful standard for comparison, for transport processes in a hot, magnetically confined plasma. The kinetic description of this dissipation is…

We present a charge-dependent nucleon-nucleon (NN) potential that fits the world proton-proton data below 350 MeV available in the year of 2000 with a chi 2 per datum of 1.01 for 2932 data and the corresponding neutron-proton data with chi 2/datum =…

We calculate the triton binding energy with a non-local NN potential that fits the world NN data below 350 MeV with the almost perfect chi 2/datum of 1.03. The non-locality is derived from relativistic meson field theory. The result obtained in a…

Neutron stars are some of the densest manifestations of massive objects in the universe. They are ideal astrophysical laboratories for testing theories of dense matter physics and provide connections among nuclear physics, particle physics, and…

We present detailed results for the model-independent low momentum nucleon-nucleon interaction Vlow k. By introducing a cutoff in momentum space, we separate the Hilbert space into a low momentum and a high momentum part. The renormalization group…

We present an updated version (Nijm93) of the Nijmegen soft-core potential, which gives a much better description of the np data than the older version (Nijm78). The χ2 per datum is 1.87. The configuration-space and momentum-space versions of this…

In this paper, we calculate the stable Wigner-Seitz (W-S) cells in the inner crust of neutron stars and we discuss the nuclear shell effects. A distinction is done between the shell effects due to the bound states and those induced by the unbound…

The OPERA neutrino experiment at the underground Gran Sasso Laboratory has measured the velocity of neutrinos from the CERN CNGS beam over a baseline of about 730 km with much higher accuracy than previous studies conducted with accelerator…

We report quantum Monte Carlo calculations of ground and low-lying excited states for A=8 nuclei using a realistic Hamiltonian containing the Argonne v18 two-nucleon and Urbana IX three-nucleon potentials. The calculations begin with correlated…
-
We study systematically the impact of the time-even tensor terms of the Skyrme energy density functional, i.e. terms bilinear in the spin-current tensor density, on deformation properties of closed shell nuclei corresponding to 20, 28, 40, 50, 82,…

A theory of superconductivity is presented, based on the fact that the interaction between electrons resulting from virtual exchange of phonons is attractive when the energy difference between the electrons states involved is less than the phonon…
-
The first excited 0+ state in 12C (Hoyle state) has been predicted to be a dilute self-bound gas of bosonic α particles, similar to a Bose-Einstein condensate. To clarify this conjecture, precise electron scattering data on form factors of the…
