Effective interactions, when defined in a coarse grained sense, such as Vlowk at the scale 450 MeV, display a remarkable symmetry pattern. Serber symmetry works with high accuracy for spin triplet states. Wigner SU(4) spin-isospin symmetry…

We derive and compute effective valence-space shell-model interactions from ab-initio coupled-cluster theory and apply them to open-shell and neutron-rich oxygen and carbon isotopes. Our shell-model interactions are based on nucleon-nucleon…
Recently, a method was developed for implementing arbitrary short-range nucleon-nucleon correlations in Monte Carlo sampled nuclei (as well as deformations of the 1-body nuclear density). We use this method to implement realistic 2-body…
