2 Introduction Neutron Star (NS): compact objects made mostly by neutrons R 1 km M 1.4 M atmosphere: atomic and plasma physics outer crust: physics of superfluids (neutrons, vortex), solid state physics (nuclei) inner crust: deformed nuclei, pasta phase outer core: nuclear matter inner core: hyperons?? quark matter?? condensates (, K)??? curtesy of Dany Page
3 Introduction 3 The hydrostatic equilibrium of a static spherically symmetric star is given by the solution of Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations (TOV): derivation of static properties of the stars like mass and radius E M M max TOV 1:1 0 b 1 km R Note: for a given EOS the solution of the TOV is unique!! unique M(R) relation!! if you know the EOS you can predict the maximum mass and compare with observations Problem: do we know the EOS?? not really but: EOS for NS: energy/pressure of a nuclear medium nuclear interactions!!
4 Introduction 4 nuclei neutron stars same underlying physics!! nuclear interactions R fm m M 10 7 kg look at experiments & observations R 10 km 10 4 m M 1.4 M kg Introduction Quantum Monte Carlo methods & Nuclear Hamiltonians Moving towards medium-mass nuclei AFDMC & chiral forces Preliminary results: binding energies & radii Preliminary results: single- & two-nucleon momentum distributions Future directions and conclusions
5 Quantum Monte Carlo methods 5 { { Goal: solve the many-body problem for correlated systems in a non-perturbative fashion VMC, GFMC: sampling in coordinate space reduced number of nucleons: A=1 w.f. with -body & 3-body correlations CVMC: sampling in coordinate space + cluster expansion closed shell nuclei (+/-1): A=40 real-space (but not only) AFDMC: sampling in coordinate & spin-isospin space large number of nucleons local forces (possibly) VMC CVMC GFMC AFDMC 1 GFMC: light systems A apple 1 40 AFDMC: light to mediumheavy nuclei A 50 A AFDMC: nuclear matter A = 1
6 Nuclear Hamiltonians 6 Model: non-relativistic nucleons interacting with an effective nucleon-nucleon (NN) force and 3-nucleon interaction (NNN) H = ~ m X i r i + X i<j v ij + X i<j<k v ijk v ij v ijk fitted on NN scattering data & deuteron fitted on properties of (light) nuclei (+constraints) Focus on two families of nuclear interactions: Real-space, local (mostly), phenomenological: Argonne (NN) + Urbana-Illinois (NNN) Momentum-space, non-local, chiral effective field theory: X-EFT (NN+NNN+ ) Note: local vs non-local ( p =(p1 p )/ ( q = p 0 p local r p 0 =(p 0 1 p 0 )/ k =(p 0 + p)/ non-local r r
7 Nuclear Hamiltonians: phenomenological potentials NN: Argonne AV18 (AV8 ) X X X 7 v ij = X p X O p ij vp (r ij ) O p=1,8 ij = {, i j,s ij, L ij S ij } {, i j } NNN: Urbana-Illinois π π π π π π π π π π + short-range term Pros: Argonne interactions fit phase shifts up to high energies. Accurate up to (at least) -3 saturation density. Suitable for QMC calculations. Very good description of several observables in light nuclei (GFMC ground-state: uncertainties within 1-%). Cons: Phenomenological interactions are phenomenological, not clear how to improve their quality. Theoretical uncertainties hard to quantify. 3-body forces?

9 Nuclear Hamiltonians: chiral EFT potentials 9 LO NN NNN 1 0 O Q b X-EFT is an expansion in powers of Q m 100 MeV b m 800 MeV soft scale hard scale Q/ b NLO 1 O Q b Long-range physics: given explicitly (no parameters to fit) by pion-exchanges 1 N 3 LO O Q b + Short-range physics: parametrized through contact interactions with low-energy constants (LECs) fit to low-energy data 1 N 3 4 LO O Q b + + Many-body forces enter systematically and are related via the same LECs
10 Nuclear Hamiltonians: chiral EFT potentials 10 Pros: Chiral interactions have a theoretical derivation and they can be systematically improved. They are typically softer than the phenomenological forces, making most of the calculations easier to converge. Many-body forces are naturally accounted for. Cons: Chiral interactions describe low-energy (momentum) physics. How do they work at large momenta? In the standard formulation they are non-local and they are written in momentum-space. Not suitable for AFDMC calculations. local chiral N LO potentials -body NN 3-body NNN A. Gezerlis et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, (013) A. Gezerlis et al., Phys. Rev. C 90, (014) I. Tews et al., Phys.

14 AFDMC & local chiral EFT potentials 14 Status: -body and 3-body local chiral N LO potentials have been implemented in GFMC but so far they have been tested on s-shell nuclei only (A=3,4) and neutron matter -body potentials have been implemented in AFDMC: need to be tested in nuclei 3-body potentials have been implemented in AFDMC: need to be tested Problem: commutators from TPE in NNN cannot be included in the AFDMC propagator Idea: use an approximate propagator for NNN 1. enhance the other NNN components in the propagator to compensate for the missing operators. minimize the expectation value of the difference between enhanced and real NNN force: hv diff 3b i Note: similar idea used in GFMC for AV18: propagation done with AV8, where is chosen so as to minimize the difference <AV18 - AV8 >

30 SRC Pair Fraction (%) was 11%. Taking this into account, the corrected experimental ratio for 1 C(e,e'pn)/ 1 C(e,e'pp) was 9.0 ±.5. To deduce the ratio of p-n to p-p SRC pairs in the ground state of 1 C, we used the measured 1 C(e,e'pn)/ 1 1 C(e,e'pp) ratio. Because we used (e,e'p) events to search for SRC nucleon pairs, the probability of detecting p-p pairs was twice that of p-n pairs; thus, we conclude that the ratio of p-n/p-p pairs in the 1 Cgroundstateis18±5 (Fig. ). To get a comprehensive picture of the structure of 1 C, we combined the pair faction results with the inclusive 1 C(e,e') measurements (4, 5, 14) andfoundthatapproximately0%of the nucleons in 1 CformSRCpairs,consistent In the 1980s and several femtometers, known as long-range correlations, has been established (3), but these accounted scattered electrons at a central scattering events for 1 C(e,e'p).

Downloaded from two-nucleon momentum distribution (q & Q): on the way!! short-range interaction reported here suggests that momentum distribution for the protons and neutrons in neutron stars will be substantially different from that characteristic of an ideal Fermi gas. A theoretical calculation that takes into account the p-n correlation effect at relevant neutron star densities and realistic proton concentration shows the correlation effect on the momentum distribution of the protons and the neutrons (3). We therefore speculate that the small concentration of protons inside neutron stars might have a disproportionately large effect that needs to be addressed in realistic descriptions of neutron stars.
