Uncertainty Analysis and Order-by-Order Optimization of Chiral Nuclear Interactions
Uncertainty Analysis and Order-by-Order Optimization of Chiral Nuclear Interactions
Chiral effective field theory (χEFT) provides a systematic approach to describe low-energy nuclear forces. Moreover, χEFT is able to provide well-founded estimates of statistical and systematic uncertainties—although this unique advantage has not yet been fully exploited. We fill this gap by performing an optimization and statistical analysis of all the …
