Reaction models in nuclear astrophysics
We present different reaction models commonly used in nuclear astrophysics, in particular for the nucleosynthesis of light elements. Pioneering works were performed within the potential model, where the internal structure of the colliding nuclei is ...

Short Wavelength Limit of the Dynamic Matsubara Local Field Correction
ABSTRACT We investigate the short wavelength limit of the dynamic Matsubara local field correction G˜q,zl$$ \tilde{G}\left(\mathbf{q},{z}_l\right) $$ of the uniform electron gas based on direct ab initio path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) results over an unprecedented range of wavenumbers, q≲20qF$$ q\lesssim 20{q}_{\mathrm{F}} $$, where qF$$ {q}_{\mathrm{

Nuclear astrophysics in storage rings [PDF]
Nuclear reaction cross sections are usually very small in typical astrophysical environments. It has been one of the major challenges of experimental nuclear astrophysics to assess the magnitude of these cross sections in the laboratory. For a successful experiment high luminosity beams are needed.

Simulation of a Three‐Nucleons System Transition on Quantum Circuits
A general procedure is presented to calculate the transition probability for two nuclear states and a transition operator. The ground state is approximated through the variational quantum eigensolver and the first excited one using more sophisticated variational algorithms.
