Abstract

Here, the present understanding of nuclear electromagnetic properties including electromagnetic moments, form factors and transitions in nuclei with A ≤ 10 is reviewed. Emphasis is on calculations based on nuclear Hamiltonians that include two- and three-nucleon realistic potentials, along with one- and two-body electromagnetic currents derived from a chiral effective field theory with pions and nucleons.

Quantum Monte Carlo calculations of electromagnetic moments and transitions in A≤9 nuclei with meson-exchange currents derived from chiral effective field theory

Journal Article Pastore, S. ; Pieper, Steven C. ; Schiavilla, R. ; ... - Physical Review. C. Nuclear Physics

Here, quantum Monte Carlo calculations of electromagnetic moments and transitions are reported for A ≤ 9 nuclei. The realistic Argonne v₁₈ two-nucleon and Illinois-7 three-nucleon potentials are used to generate the nuclear wave functions. Contributions of two-body meson-exchange current (MEC) operators are included for magnetic moments and M1 transitions. The MEC operators have been derived in both a standard nuclear physics approach and a chiral effective field theory formulation with pions and nucleons including up to one-loop corrections. The two-body MEC contributions provide significant corrections and lead to very good agreement with experiment. Their effect is particularly pronounced in themore »« less

Quantum Monte Carlo methods for nuclei.

Journal Article Wiringa, R B ; Physics - Phys. in Canada

A major goal in nuclear physics is to understand how nuclear binding, structure, and reactions can be described from the underlying interactions between individual nucleons. We want to compute the properties of an A-nucleon system as an A-body problem with free-space nuclear interactions that describe nucleon-nucleon (NN) scattering and the two-nucleon bound-state. Properties of interest for a given nucleus include the ground-state binding energy, excitation spectrum, one- and two-nucleon density and momentum distributions, electromagnetic moments and transitions. They also wish to describe the interactions of nuclei with electrons, neutrinos, pions, nucleons, and other nuclei. Such calculations can provide a standardmore »« less
Quantum Monte Carlo calculations of electromagnetic transitions in light nuclei

Conference Pastore, Saori ; Wiringa, Rober ; Schiavilla, Rocco ; ...

Recently, we presented ab initio quantum Monte Carlo calculations of magnetic moments and M1 transitions in A <= 10 nuclei, which include two-body meson-exchange currents' contributions of one- and two-pion range, derived from chiral effective field. These corrections are found to always improve the theoretical predictions, leading to a very good agreement with the experimental data. Here, we report on a study, carried out within the same framework, of M1 transitions in low-lying states of 8Be. We also present a number of E2 transition calculations, evaluated in impulse approximation, with emphasis on transitions involving the 8Be resonant excited states atmore » ~ 3 MeV and ~ 11 MeV.« less
