Modeling Heavy Atomic Nuclei Through First-Principle Calculations

Modeling the properties of atomic nuclei, which is a demanding job, necessitates a theory that can be applied to a wide range of nuclear species irrespective of their masses. The doctoral dissertation of M.Sc. Gianluca Salvioni on theoretical nuclear physics endeavors to formulate such a theory with the help of inputs from accurate first-principle calculations available for light nuclei.
