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…

Electromagnetic and weak transitions tell us a great deal about the structure of atomic nuclei. Yet modeling transitions can be difficult: it is often easier to compute the ground state, if only as an approximation, than excited states. One…
