We extend the pion-nucleus multiple-scattering framework to include detailed second-order rescattering dynamics for nuclei with non-zero isospin. To account for intermediate charge-exchange and nucleon spin-flip effects, we develop a…

We construct nucleonic microscopic optical potentials by combining the Green's function approach with the coupled-cluster method for $\rm{^{40}Ca}$ and $\rm{^{48}Ca}$. For the computation of the ground-state of $\rm{^{40}Ca}$ and…
