Ab Initio Nuclear Theory: From Breakthroughs to Applications

Recent breakthroughs in nuclear theory have allowed for a real explosion of first-principles predictions for nuclear physics. The so-called ab initio revolution is providing a plethora of key, valuable results which are able to connect nuclear properties to the underlying theory of the strong interaction.

Recent breakthroughs in nuclear theory have allowed for a real explosion of first-principles predictions for nuclear physics. The so-called ab initio revolution is providing a plethora of key, valuable results which are able to connect nuclear properties to the underlying theory of the strong interaction.

The groundwork on the field is now well established and, in the present consolidation phase, ab initio nuclear theory has become a mainstream resource in nuclear physics. But, with a diverse set of tools at the practitioner’s disposal and a wide range of experimental possibilities available, it is time to think about the challenges for the next generation of ab initio nuclear theory.

We aim at organising a meeting that will focus on the theme of What next in ab initio theory? We feel this is vital to make progress in the wider picture of nuclear structure and reactions, but also in an attempt to connect to other relevant global challenges, ranging from astrophysics to nuclear technology. 

CONFIRMED SPEAKERS

Aurel Bulgac (UW, Seattle)

Gianluca Colò (University of Milan)

Willem H. Dickhoff (Washington University, St. Louis)

Gaute Hagen (Oak Ridge National Laboratory)

Takaharu Otsuka (CNS, University of Tokyo)
