2 Role and Goals of the OSU/MSU Groups From the NUCLEI proposal (not exhaustive): Develop low-momentum NN and NNN (and NNNN) interactions and operators as input to ab initio wave function methods and nuclear matter Develop and apply in-medium SRG Develop nuclear matter calculations with controlled theoretical errors as input to microscopic functionals Optimize, validate, and apply next generation EDF s to constrain the form of the functionals based on underlying NN and NNN interactions Develop and test DME-based functionals for neutron drops, validating against ab initio wave function methods
