A nuclear model is proposed where the nucleons interact by emitting and absorbing mesons, and where the mesons are treated explicitly. A nucleus in this model finds itself in a quantum superposition of states with different number of…
Solutions to the nuclear many-body problem rely on effective interactions, and in general effective operators, to take into account effects not included in calculations. These include effects due to the truncation to finite model spaces…

The shell model is the standard tool for addressing the canonical nuclear many-body problem of nonrelativistic nucleons interacting through a static potential. We discuss several of the uncontrolled approximations that are made in this…
