Energy density functionals (EDFs) have been used extensively with great success to calculate properties of nuclei and to predict the equation of state (EOS) of dense nuclear matter. Besides non-relativistic EDFs, mostly of the Skyrme or…

We present a perturbative calculation of the neutron matter equation of state based on low-momentum two- and three-nucleon interactions. Our results are compared to the model-independent virial equation of state and to variational…
The Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation is less accurate in the presence of a strong magnetic field than in the absence of a field. This is due to the complicated and unpredictable response of electronic structure to the field, especially…
