The Theoretical Nuclear Physics research group at Kyushu University aims to uncover the dynamics of many-body quantum systems, with a primary focus on atomic nuclei. We strive for accurate interpretations of experimental data by continuously refining our theoretical models to extract new physics from these complex quantum systems. Our group actively collaborates with both theoretical and experimental researchers globally. The core objective of theoretical nuclear physics is to understand the structure and transformations of composite particle systems made of protons and neutrons (nucleons). Even with known fundamental particles and interactions, predicting their collective behavior in nuclei presents significant challenges and opportunities for discovery. Research in this field is crucial for understanding stellar evolution, the creation of elements, and potential applications like nuclear waste transmutation.
