The structure of single-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei is studied using the chiral hyperon-nucleon potentials derived at leading order (LO) and next-to-leading order (NLO) by the J\"{u}lich--Bonn--Munich group. Results for the separation energies of…
We present the first ab initio calculations of nuclear ground states up into the domain of heavy nuclei, spanning the range from 16-O to 132-Sn based on two- plus three-nucleon interactions derived within chiral effective field theory. We…
We have studied single-$\Lambda$ finite hypernuclear systems spanning from light to heavy masses, employing a new microscopic Lambda-N interaction derived from in-medium interactions within relativistic Brueckner-Hartree-Fock calculations…
Characterizing the correlated behavior of nucleons inside atomic nuclei constitutes a long-standing challenge, both experimentally and theoretically. It has recently been understood that two-particle correlations in the azimuthal…
We address the $\Lambda$-hypernuclear `overbinding problem' in light hypernuclei which stands for a 1--3 MeV excessive $\Lambda$ separation energy calculated in $_{\Lambda}^5$He. This problem arises in most few-body calculations that…
A depth of $D_{\Lambda}\approx -28$ MeV for the $\Lambda$-nucleus potential was confirmed in 1988 by studying $\Lambda$ binding energies deduced from $(\pi^+,K^+)$ spectra measured across the periodic table. Modern two-body hyperon-nucleon…
We generalize the Jacobi no-core shell model (J-NCSM) to study double-strangeness hypernuclei. All particle conversions in the strangeness $S=-1,-2$ sectors are explicitly taken into account. In two-body space, such transitions may lead to…
We explore the systematics of ground-state and excitation energies in singly-strange hypernuclei throughout the helium and lithium isotopic chains --- from $^5_\Lambda$He to $^{11}_\Lambda$He and from $^7_\Lambda$Li to $^{12}_\Lambda$Li ---…
Three-nucleon forces are an essential ingredient for an accurate description of nuclear few- and many-body systems. However, implementing them directly in many-body calculations is technically very challenging. Thus, there is a need for an…
We fit the $^1 S_0 \Lambda\Lambda$ interaction in the nuclear medium to the masses of the experimentally known double-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei: $^{\phantom{6}6}_{\Lambda\Lambda}$He, $^{10}_{\Lambda\Lambda}$Be and $^{13}_{\Lambda\Lambda}$B. We…
We extend the microscopic particle-rotor model for hypernuclear low-lying states by including the derivative and tensor coupling terms in the point-coupling nucleon-$\Lambda$ particle ($N\Lambda$) interaction. Taking $^{13}_{~\Lambda}$C as…
We calculate the structure of three-body hypernuclei with $S=-1$ using pionless effective field theory at leading order in the isospin $I=0$ and $I=1$ sectors. In both sectors, three-body hypernuclei arise naturally from the Efimov effect…
Auxiliary Field Diffusion Monte Carlo (AFDMC) calculations have been employed to revise the interaction between $\Lambda$-hyperons and nucleons in hypernuclei. The scheme used to describe the interaction, inspired by the phenomenological…
Recent advances in nuclear structure theory have significantly enlarged the accessible part of the nuclear landscape via ab initio many-body calculations. These developments open new ways for microscopic studies of light, medium-mass and…
A novel parameterisation of a Hamiltonian based on chiral effective field theory is introduced. Specifically, three-nucleon operators at next-to-next-to-leading order are combined with an existing (and successful) two-body interaction…
We adopt the Hartree-Fock (HF) method in the proton-neutron-$\Lambda$ (p-n-$\Lambda$) formalism and the nucleon-$\Lambda$ Tamm-Dancoff Approximation (N$\Lambda$ TDA) to study the energy spectra of medium-mass hypernuclei. The formalism is…
We investigate the properties of $\Lambda$ hyperon in $\Lambda$-hypernuclei using an effective nuclear density functional theory which is based on the low-energy effective field theory. It expands the energy density in the power of Fermi…
We analyze the peculiarities of the interaction of the lambda hyperon with s-shell nuclei. The spectra of bound and scattering states are studied in the hypernuclei $_{\Lambda}^{2}$H, $_{\Lambda}^{3}$H, $_{\Lambda}^{4}$H, $_{\Lambda}^{4}$He…
Explicit expressions for the leading chiral hyperon-nucleon-nucleon three-body forces have been derived by Petschauer et al [Phys. Rev. C93.014001 (2016)]. An important prerequisite for including these three-body forces in few- and…
The three-nucleon bound and scattering equations are solved in momentum space for a coupled-channel Hamiltonian. The Hamiltonian couples the purely nucleonic sector of Hilbert space with a sector in which one nucleon is excited to a…
