Quantum dynamics of nuclear collisions

Today I was at the Department of Nuclear Physics at ANU with collaborators discussing quantum decoherence in heavy ion collisions.
Kouichi Hagino was visiting from Japan and gave us a nice overview of the coupled channels approach to nuclear collisions. He made use of some really nice lecture notes he gave at a summer school in 2006.

A very effective Hamiltonian in nuclear physics

Atomic nuclei are complex quantum many-body systems. Effective theories have helped provide a better understanding of them. The best-known a...
