Dynamics of Density Fluctuations in Atomic Nuclei

We study the spatiotemporal patterns of density fluctuations in 16,24O and 48Ca using nuclear interactions from chiral effective field theory and the time-dependent coupled-cluster method. We find that two-particle–two-hole excitations generate small-amplitude fluctuations that are fast, short-ranged, and of stochastic character.

Recent advances in coupled cluster computations of open-shell atomic nuclei

In this contribution, we report on recent progress in coupled-cluster simulations of open-shell atomic nuclei using interactions consistently derived from chiral effective field theory. In particular, we compare different coupled-cluster approaches by computing binding energies and electric dipole polarizabilities in medium-mass calcium isotopes.
