Formalims for Nuclear Structure
- Vittorio Soma (CEA)
A quantitative and predictive description of nuclear reactions requires a coherent treatment of nuclear interactions, many-body correlations, and reaction dynamics within a unified computational framework. In this talk, the ongoing developments of the PAN@CEA collaboration toward such an integrated A-body approach will be presented. The end goal is the design of a single, extensible code meant...
In this talk, I will provide a review of the calculations of photon strength functions within the Configuration Interaction Shell Model and will illustrate their importance for various applications as well as for the benchmark and developments of other many-body methods in nuclear structure.
Modeling fission properties, such as barriers and rates, is highly challenging. The most advanced methods, based on energy density functionals (EDFs), rely on a limited set of collective coordinates to describe the evolution of a fissioning nucleus from its ground state to scission. Commonly used degrees of freedom include the quadrupole moment, which describes axially symmetric ellipsoids,...
