Abstract

We present a nonperturbative derivation of effective valence-shell Hamiltonians in the framework of the recently developed in-medium similarity renormalization group (IM-SRG). As a first application, we calculate the spectra of pp- and sdsd-shell nuclei, 6^6Li and 18^{18}O, based on evolved chiral nucleon-nucleon interactions. For 6^6Li, the spectrum is in very good agreement with ab-initio results. For 18^{18}O, the IM-SRG provides a new method for the shell model to systematically go beyond effective interaction techniques based on diagrammatic expansions.
