In a nuclear medium, spin-dependent forces cause the nucleon spins to fluctuate with a rate $\Gamma_\sigma$. We have previously shown that as a consequence the effective axial-current neutrino-nucleon scattering cross section is reduced.…
Nucleon-nucleon ($NN$) interactions based on chiral effective theories are commonly used in ab initio calculations of light nuclei. Here we present a study based on three different NN interactions (up to next-to-next-to-leading order) for…
