Description
In the physics of nuclei there have been rapid advances combining innovative ab initio many-body methods with nuclear forces based on chiral effective field theory. This talk will focus on ab initio calculations based on the in-medium similarity renormalization group (IMSRG), which has enabled systematic calculations of nuclei up to 100 nucleons, first global ab initio calculations of nuclei up to iron, and many exciting explorations with ISOLDE experiments. Moreover, I will discuss new ab initio advances for the description of open-shell and heavy neutron-rich nuclei.
