Worldline Monte Carlo method for few-body nuclear physics

Journal Article Physical Review C · August 1, 2024 In this work we introduce a worldline-based fermion Monte Carlo algorithm for studying few body quantum mechanics of self-interacting fermions in the Hamiltonian lattice formulation. Our motivation to construct the method comes from our interest in studyin ... Full text Cite

Large- Nc constraints for elastic dark-matter-light-nucleus scattering in pionless effective field theory

Journal Article Physical Review C · October 1, 2022 Recent proposals for the use of light nuclei as dark-matter direct detection targets necessitate a strong theoretical understanding of the nuclear physics involved. We perform relevant calculations for dark-matter-light-nucleus scattering in a combined pio ... Full text Cite

Large- Nc and renormalization group constraints on parity-violating low-energy coefficients for three-derivative operators in pionless effective field theory

Journal Article Physical Review C · May 1, 2021 We extend, from operators with one derivative to operators with three derivatives, the analysis of two-body hadronic parity violation in a combined pionless effective field theory (EFTπ/) and large-Nc expansion, where Nc is the number of colors in quantum ...
