The strong force at low energies: from exotic nuclei to fundamental symmetries

核物理学的核心挑战之一是理解和预测稳定和外来核的性质，其中三核子（3N）力是至关重要的，并且是当前的前沿。该项目将独特地将强大的多体方法应用于强相互作用的核系统，在动量空间和介质中使用相似重整化群（SRG）方法系统地实现中质量和较重的富中子核的多体计算中的3N力，以实现价壳相互作用和电弱算子的一致计算。手性有效场论（EFT）为核力包括一致多体力和理论不确定性提供了系统的基础。随着理论和计算的进步，我处于一个关键的位置，将实验室里的观察结果与控制原子核性质的潜在强相互作用联系起来。

One of the central challenges in nuclear physics is to understand and predict the properties of stable and exotic nuclei, for which three-nucleon (3N) forces are crucial and present a current frontier. This project will uniquely apply powerful many-body methods to strongly interacting nuclear systems, systematically implementing 3N forces in many-body calculations of medium-mass and heavier neutron-rich nuclei using similarity renormalization group (SRG) methods in momentum space and in-medium for consistent calculations of valence-shell interactions and electroweak operators. Chiral effective field theory (EFT) provides a systematic basis for nuclear forces including consistent many-body forces and theoretical uncertainties. With theoretical and computational advances, I am in a key position to connect the observations made in the laboratory to the underlying strong interactions governing the properties of nuclei.
