Recent Applications of Self-Consistent Green's Function Theory to Nuclei

We discuss recent ab initio calculations based on self-consistent Green's function theory. It is found that a simple extension of the formalism to account for two-nucleon scattering outside the model space allows to calculate non-soft interactions. With this, it is possible to make predictions for Lattice QCD potentials, obtained so far at pion masses of mπ = 0.47 GeV/c2. More traditional calculations that use saturating chiral EFT forces yield a good description of nuclear responses and nucleon knockout spectroscopy.
