Title | Interplay between many-body methods and EFT-inspired Hamiltonians in nuclear structure |
Abstract | In recent years, chiral effective field theory (EFT) has reshaped our approach to the modelling of nuclear interactions, both conceptually and practically. At present several EFT-inspired nuclear Hamiltonians, derived more or less rigorously according to EFT principles, are on the market and are successful in describing numerous properties of light and medium-mass nuclei. Nevertheless, there is increasing debate on whether such calculations truly fulfil EFT potentialities, with alternative EFT schemes also being pursued. I this seminar I will discuss how these developments and issues at the level of the nuclear Hamiltonian impact many-body methods and calculations. I will do so by first examining a few successful results in medium-mass nuclei obtained with chiral-EFT potentials. Next, I will present a preliminary study of extended neutron matter where a pionless-EFT interaction, devoid of the issues alluded to above, is employed. |
