2018 Annual Continuation And Progress Report For Nuclear Theory At Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
Research in the area of nuclear structure and reactions, with an emphasis on ab initio approaches, was been conducted under base research funding (FWP SCW0498) and the Topical Collaboration (TC) “DBD: Nuclear Theory for Double-Beta Decay and Fundamental Symmetries” (FWP SCW1579). New funding under FWP SCW0498 in FY19 was $130k and, which augmented carryover from the previous year, which was primarily intended to fund an FRIB Theory Fellow. In the period covered by this review, we generated 9 publications (including a Letter, two submissions to Nature, and an invited review paper), and 3 invited talks. In the following we highlight the most important accomplishments.
