We extend to strongly correlated molecular systems the recently introduced basis-set incompleteness correction based on density-functional theory (DFT) [E. Giner et al., J. Chem. Phys. 149, 194301 (2018)]. This basis-set correction relies…

We examine the effect of isospin-violating meson-nucleon coupling constants and of $\pi$-$\eta$ mixing on the binding-energy differences of mirror nuclei in a model that possesses no contribution from $\rho$-$\omega$ mixing. The…

We show that a consequence of isospin symmetry, recently discovered in mirror conjugated one-nucleon decays, can be extended to mirror-conjugated $\alpha$-particles decays, both virtual and real. For virtual $\alpha$-decays of bound mirror…
