2WB.00001: New results for medium and heavy-mass nuclei Invited Speaker: Achim Schwenk In this talk, we will discuss the advances, status and challenges of understanding and predicting medium and heavy-mass nuclei based on chiral effective field theory interactions. [Preview Abstract] |

2WB.00002: Nuclei and Fundamental Symmetries Invited Speaker: Wick Haxton Nuclei provide marvelous laboratories for testing fundamental interactions, often enhancing weak processes through accidental degeneracies among states, and providing selection rules that can be exploited to isolate selected interactions. I will give an overview of current work, including the use of parity violation to probe unknown aspects of the hadronic weak interaction; nuclear electric dipole moment searches that may shed light on new sources of CP violation; and tests of lepton number violation made possible by the fact that many nuclei can only decay by rare second-order weak interactions. I will point to opportunities in both theory and experiment to advance the field. [Preview Abstract] |
