Precision nuclear theory: advances and challenges
Andreas Ekström (Chalmers University of Technology, Schweden)


A precise and accurate theoretical model of the strong interactions between protons and neutrons would provide a key to new knowledge across 20 orders of magnitude; from neutrinos to neutron stars. Despite a century of the finest efforts, a systematic and quantitative description of strongly interacting matter at low energies is still lacking. In this seminar I will present some of the recent developments and future perspectives towards a predictive theory for atomic nuclei.
