EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Perturbative effective-field-theory calculation of the deuteron longitudinal response function

Andrew J. Andis, Songlin Lyu (吕松林), Bingwei Long (龙炳蔚), and Sebastian König

Phys. Rev. C 114, 024004 (2026) - Published 31 August, 2026

Nuclear effective field theories (EFTs) have had enormous impact on ab initio nuclear physics, yet many open questions remain regarding their development and application. This work studies Chiral EFT in a strictly RG-invariant formulation and applies it to the process of deuteron electrodisintegration, extending the reach of such calculations from static properties to breakup processes that probe a larger range of physics. To achieve this, the Lorentz Integral Transform (LIT) method is extended such that all subleading corrections, including those to the electromagnetic current operator, are included in perturbation theory, reaching second order in the EFT expansion. Finding good agreement with available data, this perturbative LIT framework paves the way for similar studies involving heavier nuclei.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Quantifying uncertainty in physics-based predictions of rare-isotope production cross sections via Bayesian-inspired model averaging across nuclear mass tables

O. B. Tarasov

Phys. Rev. C 114, 024603 (2026) - Published 6 August, 2026

Discovering new isotopes begins with knowing where to look. Predicting rare-isotope production is difficult because different nuclear-mass models can give substantially different results, making the planning of experiments uncertain. This work introduces a Bayesian-inspired model-averaging framework that combines abrasion–ablation calculations based on 12 nuclear mass tables into one statistically weighted prediction. Experimental data for krypton-78 and xenon-124 are used to determine which calculations are more reliable, and the resulting trends are transferred to molybdenum-92 and samarium-144 projectiles. The method provides predicted cross sections together with uncertainty estimates, giving a more reliable basis for selecting primary beams and estimating yields. Applied to proton-rich fragmentation at FRIB, the approach identifies several promising candidates for new-isotope searches with expected production rates above one event per day. It can help researchers plan experiments more effectively and explore still-unknown regions of the nuclear chart.
