Lattice calculations for A=3,4,6,12 nuclei using chiral effective field theory

Understand

We present lattice calculations for the ground state energies of tritium, helium-3, helium-4, lithium-6, and carbon-12 nuclei.

• Our results were previously summarized in a letter publication.
• This paper provides full details of the calculations.
• We include isospin-breaking, Coulomb effects, and interactions up to next-to-next-to-leading order in chiral effective field theory.
