Speaker:   Calvin Johnson (San Diego State U)

Title:     Extending the reach of nuclear structure calculations

Abstract: After briefly reviewing the current status of nuclear structure calculations, in particular configuration-interaction shell model, I will look at ways to go beyond current limits.  In particular I will look at the weak coupling approximation, and use a novel concept, the entanglement entropy, to show that this approach works well.  Such large scale calculations are needed to consider heavy nuclei.
