Background: Effective interactions for nucleon-nucleus ($NA$) elastic scattering from first principles require the use of the same nucleon-nucleon ($NN$) interaction in the structure and reaction calculations, and a consistent treatment of…
Electron beams provide important probes and constraints for nuclear astrophysics. This is especially exciting at energies within the regime of chiral effective field theory (EFT), which provides a systematic expansion for nuclear forces and…
To solve difficulties related to the use of nuclear density functional theory applied in its beyond mean-field version, we introduce a semi-contact 3-body effective interaction. We show that this interaction is a good candidate to replace…
