Ab initio means a calculation starts with the established laws of physics without any other assumptions. In the case of effective interactions, working ab initio means that physicists use consistent ...
Tensor force is a crucial ingredient of the nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction, and has an important impact on the structural and dynamical properties of the nuclear many-body system. Many efforts have ...
Top: protons striking a nucleus deflect from their original path depending on velocity, location of impact, and force from the protons inside the nucleus. Bottom: elastic proton scattering cross ...
