Progress and challenges in theory of nuclei (Snapshots) David J. Dean Oak Ridge National Laboratory International Nuclear Physics Conference Tokyo, Japan, June 2007 "The shell must break before the bird can fly." -- Tennyson

Key science drivers of rare isotopes Test the predictive power of models by extending experiments to new regions of mass and proton-to-neutron ratio Identify new phenomena that will challenge existing many-body theory Create and study super heavy nuclei Characterize neutron skins and excitation modes Constrain r-process site and explosive nucleosynthesis Constrain nuclear equation of state (neutron star crusts) Societal Applications: Energy, Security Beyond ‘Standard Model’:  0 decay; Dark Matter, EDM… ROADMAP

Present and next Generation Radioactive Ion Beam facilities (multi $100M investments world wide) Future U.S. FRIB based on a heavy-ion linac driver a high priority. “[C]ountries throughout the world are aggressively pursuing rare-isotope science, often as their highest priority in nuclear science, attesting to the significance accorded internationally to this exciting area of research” NAS RISAC Report

The challenge of neutron rich nuclei ‘normal’‘rare’ Half-lifeLong/stableShort SizeCompactHalos ContinuumUnimportantImportant Shell closuresNormal magic numbers New magic numbers Scattering Cross section ‘Normal’Enhanced

The challenge of theory for nuclei “The first, the basic approach, is to study the elementary particles, their properties and mutual interaction. Thus one hopes to obtain knowledge of the nuclear forces. If the forces are known, one should, in principle, be able to calculate deductively the properties of individual nuclei. Only after this has been accomplished can one say that one completely understands nuclear structure….The other approach is that of the experimentalist and consists in obtaining by direct experimentation as many data as possible for individual nuclei. One hopes in this way to find regularities and correlations which give a clue to the structure of the nucleus….The shell model, although proposed by theoreticians, really corresponds to the experimentalist’s approach.” –M. Goeppert-Mayer, Nobel Lecture Two ways of doing business (I will focus primarily on the first): QCD  NN (and NNN) forces  calculate  predict  experiment Experiment  effective forces  calculate  predict Progress involves feedback… For a view of the modern shell model, see T. Otsuka. For a view on modern mean-field approaches, see W. Wiese

Effective Lagrangian  obeys QCD symmetries (spin, isospin, chiral symmetry breaking) Lagrangian  infinite sum of Feynman diagrams. Invoke power counting: Expand in O(Q/  QCD ) Weinberg, Ordonez, Ray, van Kolck NN amplitude uniquely determined by two classes of contributions: contact terms and pion exchange diagrams. 3-body (and higher) forces are inevitable. Dotted lines == pions lines == nucleons Fat dots == contact terms Progress on the interaction: Effective Field Theory Thus one hopes to obtain knowledge of the nuclear forces. If the forces are known… (MGM)

Effective field theory potentials bring a 3-body force Challenge: Deliver the best NN and NNN interactions with their roots in QCD (eventually from LQCD, see Ishii, Aoki and Hatsuda, arXiv:nucl-th/ ) dashed  NLO dot  N 2 LO solid  N 3 LO “…the force should be chosen on the basis of NN experiments (and possibly subsidiary experimental evidence…) (Bethe)

Begin with a NN (+3N) Hamiltonian Basis expansions: Determine the appropriate basis Generate H eff in that basis Use many-body technique to solve problemNucleus 4 shells 7 shells 4He4E49E6 8B4E85E13 12C6E114E19 16O3E149E24 Oscillator single-particle basis states Many-body basis states From the interaction to solving the nuclear many-body problem Bare (GFMC) (Local only, Av18 plus adjusted 3-body) Basis expansion (explore forces) Substantial progress in many-body developments GFMC; AFDMC No Core shell model (not a model) Coupled-cluster theory UCOM,… AFMC

“…be able to calculate deductively the properties of individual nuclei” Computation absolutely essential “Moore’s law” power law in raw computing power: 2 year doubling time. Petascale: 3 years Exascale: 10 years Challenge: develop algorithms that will effectively utilize both core speed and memory to attack nuclear problems. Measure of success: predictive nuclear theory in medium-mass nuclei (to mass 100). Moore’s Law

Progress (example): Coupled Cluster Calculations in 16 O Wolch et al PRL 94, (2005) Note, converged spectrum but 3 - is 6 MeV high. Challenge: how does the 3-body force affect these states?

Progress: inclusion of full TNF in CCSD: F-Y comparisons in 4 He = MeV +/- 0.1MeV (sys) Challenge: do we really need the full 3-body force, or just its density dependent terms? Hagen, Papenbrock, Dean, Schwenk, Nogga, Wloch, Piecuch arXiv: Solution at CCSD and CCSD(T) levels involve roughly 67 more diagrams…..

n-  scattering Nollett et al, nucl-th/ Progress: from structure to reactions in the same framework Navratil et al., PRC73, (2006) NCSM clusters For a reaction theorist’s view, see Tostiven’s talk

Progress: Level Densities with Auxiliary Field Monte Carlo Level densities are the most uncertain input to many reaction models AFMC has an MC sign problem Shift MC integration to the Hartree minimum of the fields Fully realistic shell model interactions Even and odd nuclei See also work by Alhassid, Langanke,… Stoicheva, Ormand, Neuhausser, Dean (submitted to Nature)

R. Sanchez et al, PRL. 96 (2006) C 10 C 14 C 16 C 18 C Decoupling of proton and neutron deformation in FMD calculations (Feldmeier et al) Progress: understanding scale separation Challenge: the continuum

Correlation dominated Open QS Closed QS S n =0 SnSn Closed QS Energy Neutron number Progress: Coupling of nuclear structure and reaction theory (microscopic treatment of open channels) Introduction of Continuum basis states (Gamow, Berggren)  Continuum shell models (many including: Michel, Rotureau, Volya, Ploszajczak, Liotta, Nazarewicz,…) Important interdisciplinary aspects…(see recent ECT* workshop on subject)

Single-particle basis includes bound, resonant, non-resonant continuum, and scattering states ENORMOUS SPACES….almost 1k orbitals many-body basis states in 10 He N 3 LO V lowk ( =1.9 fm -1 ) Progress: ab initio weakly bound and unbound nuclei Challenge: include 3-body force He Chain Results (Hagen et al) Gamow basis able to capture diffuse many-body states

DFT: toward a universal energy density functional and beyond Deformed Mass Table HFB mass formula:  m~700keV Good agreement for mass differences Challenges: Connection to QCD via EFT? 300 keV accuracy with one density functional? Justify excited state DFT 16 O Randomly-generated Slater determinants soft HF state Generate multiple Slater determinants Project Diagonalize norm matrix obtain excited state info Nakatsukasa et al Compares nicely with expt.

Progress: community coordination and internationalization (U.S. perspective) 1)Creation of RIA Theory Group Community wide development of scientific case for Rare Isotope Beam physics and astrophysics 2) Development of JUSTIPEN (opened, July 2006)

Conclusions and perspectives The quantum many-body problem is everywhere; its solution is one of the great intellectual challenges of our day (major international efforts) Only touched on a few themes here (with apologies) Moving toward systematic theory with quantifiable error bars PREDICTIVE theoretical capability in nuclei Exciting physics in the neutron rich regime Continuum physics (halos & skins, resonances) Changes in shell structure Astrophysical connections (e-capture, r-process…) Simple patterns in complex nuclei Major benefit from computational sciences!! New data will help define Nuclear Energy Density Functional Various applications including reaction theory on heavy nuclei International collaborations essential Arigato
