Накратко на български
Ядрената структура изследва как протони и неутрони взаимодействат чрез различни сили, за да създадат явления като спонтанно делене. Разработването на нови теоретични инструменти помага за по-точното описание на атомното ядро, което е твърде сложно за стандартните изчисления.

Theory for A Unified descRiption of nUclear Structure
The atomic nucleus is a prime example of a strongly correlated quantal system within which the nucleons (i.e. protons and neutrons) interact through a complex combination of forces. Primarily, the properties of atomic nuclei are the results of the interplay between the short-range attractive nuclear strong force among all nucleons and the long-range repulsive Coulomb interaction among protons. In addition, the weak interaction comes at play in radioactive beta decay processes and in the interaction of nuclei with elementary particles such as the neutrinos. As a result of this unique set of interactions, atomic nuclei exhibit an extraordinary variety of emergent phenomenon: rotational and vibrational modes, shape isomerism, spontaneous fission, or halo nuclei, just to name a few. To understand this diverse zoology of phenomena in a unified framework is one of the main ambitions of modern nuclear physics. Unfortunately, unveiling the properties of the nucleus is a difficult task mainly because of two interrelated problems. As previously illustrated, the interaction between the nucleons within the nucleus is rather intricate and not fully understood from first principles. The other complication arises from the number of particles in the nucleus that is normally too large to solve exactly the problem but is not large enough to describe the system using statistical mechanics. Therefore, one of the keys to the theoretical description of the atomic nucleus is the design and implementation of efficient quantum many-body techniques. The main scientific goal of the present action is to provide a microscopic, universal and reliable theoretical description of the atomic nucleus. The main practical objectives of the project are: 1. The development of theoretical tools that combine state-of-the-art first-principles (ab-initio) nuclear interactions with the two most widely used quantum many-body techniques in Nuclear Physics, namely, the interacting shell model and the self-consistent mean-field and beyond-mean-field approximations. 2. The development of state-of-the-art software and the use of high performance computing to implement and use these techniques to produce valuable theoretical data that can be useful to nuclear experimentalists and astrophysicists.

Цел на проекта
Ordinary matter is made of atoms and atoms are made of electrons surrounding a very tiny and fascinating object, the atomic nucleus. At the same time, the atomic nucleus is a physical system composed of two types of particles, protons and neutrons, that are interacting through intricate nuclear interactions, and, in the case of protons, through the electromagnetic interaction. Typical energies and sizes of this system require for its study the use of quantum many-body techniques. The main scientific goal of the present action is to provide a microscopic, universal and reliable theoretical description of the atomic nucleus. This ambitious objective will be achieved by developing: 1. Theoretical tools that combine state-of-the-art first- principles (ab-initio) nuclear interactions with the two most widely used quantum many-body techniques in Nuclear Physics, namely, the interacting shell model and the self-consistent mean-field and beyond-mean-field approximations. 2. State-of-the-art software and high performance computing to implement and use these techniques to produce valuable theoretical data that can be useful to nuclear experimentalists and astrophysicists.Pursuing this objective, the experienced researcher (ER) will acquire new scientific, managerial, dissemination, mentoring and cultural skills through advanced training that will boost his career possibilities both in academia and industry. Furthermore, this action is mutually beneficial because it opens a new line of research within the host group devoted to nuclear ab-initio methods. These topics are considered as the most important challenges to Nuclear Theory for the next decade. Therefore, this action will foster the international visibility and attractiveness of both the ER and the host group.
