Abstract:
With recent years of development, Nuclear Lattice Effective Field Theory (NLEFT) is becoming a powerful and high-fidelity
ab initio method. It takes advantage of the chiral effective field theory and quantum Monte Carlo on lattice and can build nuclear forces and solve quantum many-body problems in the same framework. The newly developed
wave function matching method and
perturbative quantum Monte Carlo method pave the way to avoid the "sign problem". In this work, we implement all these new techniques along with the two-point correlation function to measure the charge radii on lattice. Benchmark calculations show our method is solid and full N
3LO calculation can well reproduce the experiment data of
4He,
12C and
16O.
