Evolution of shell structure in neutron-rich calcium isotopes. Hagen, G., Hjorth-Jensen, M., Jansen, G. R., MacHleidt, R., & Papenbrock, T. Physical Review Letters, 2012.
doi  abstract   bibtex   
We employ interactions from chiral effective field theory and compute the binding energies and low-lying excitations of calcium isotopes with the coupled-cluster method. Effects of three-nucleon forces are included phenomenologically as in-medium two-nucleon interactions, and the coupling to the particle continuum is taken into account using a Berggren basis. The computed ground-state energies and the low-lying J$\pi$=2 + states for the isotopes Ca42,48,50,52 are in good agreement with data, and we predict the excitation energy of the first J$\pi$=2 + state in Ca54 at 1.9 MeV, displaying only a weak subshell closure. In the odd-mass nuclei Ca53,55,61 we find that the positive parity states deviate strongly from the naive shell model. \textcopyright 2012 American Physical Society.
