Speaker

Prof. Evgeny Epelbaum (Ruhr-University Bochum)

Description

Nuclear forces derived in chiral EFT are nowadays extensively used to study low-energy reactions and to describe various properties of nuclei and nuclear matter. I review the current status of the theory and describe our recent efforts towards developing this theoretical approach into a precision tool. Topics addressed include the two- and three-nucleon forces, applications to light systems and uncertainty quantification.
