Uncertainty Quantification for Nuclear Density Functional Theory and Information Content of New Measurements

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2015
Statistical tools of uncertainty quantification can be used to assess the information content of measured observables with respect to present-day theoretical models; to estimate model errors and thereby improve predictive capability; to extrapolate beyond the regions reached by experiment; and to provide meaningful input to applications and planned ...
