Our OPs are derived by folding ab initio nuclear densities with a nucleon-nucleon NN t matrix computed with a consistent chiral interaction. The results of our OPs are in good agreement with the experimental data. Recent achievements of our work are reviewed in this contribution.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-12-26T18:34:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "microscopic optical potentials", "chiral forces", "folding ab initio nuclear densities", "chiral effective field theories", "consistent chiral interaction" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
