Qcombo: A Python Package for Automated Commutator Calculations of Quantum Many-Body Operators

qcombo is a Python package for the symbolic evaluation of commutators between general quantum many-body operators expressed in normal-ordered form using the generalized Wick theorem. The package provides an automated and systematic framework for generating the corresponding algebraic expressions, significantly reducing the risk of human error in lengthy and complex analytical derivations. It is designed to assist the development and implementation of modern many-body methods in nuclear physics, quantum chemistry, and related fields. The functionality and workflow of the package are demonstrated through an application to the in-medium similarity renormalization group (IMSRG) method, which has been widely used for nuclear ab initio calculations. As a representative example, qcombo is employed to automatically generate the complete set of multi-reference IMSRG flow equations with operators truncated at the normal-ordered three-body level.

Elastic deuteron-deuteron scattering in the ${}^5S_2$ channel within Nuclear Lattice Effective Field Theory

We calculate low-energy deuteron-deuteron scattering in the spin-quintet $^{5}S_2$ channel using nuclear lattice effective field theory. The calculation combines chiral interactions at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order, implemented through wavefunction matching, with the adiabatic projection method. Because the radial cluster basis develops small norm-matrix eigenvalues at large Euclidean projection time, we investigate two stabilization procedures: Tikhonov regularization and projection onto well-resolved norm eigenmodes. The two procedures yield consistent Coulomb-subtracted phase shifts within their statistical and numerical uncertainties. A Coulomb-modified effective-range analysis gives ${}^5a_{dd} = (11.99 \pm 0.22)$ fm and ${}^5r_{dd} = (3.44 \pm 0.79)$ fm. The phase shifts are more negative, and the scattering length is substantially larger than in previous calculations, corresponding to a stronger effective repulsion in the $^{5}S_2$ channel. These results provide a first nuclear-lattice benchmark for deuteron-deuteron scattering and establish a starting point for future coupled-channel calculations of the deuteron-induced reactions relevant to big-bang nucleosynthesis.

Intruder-driven mirror energy differences between $^{29}$Cl and $^{29}$Mg studied with antisymmetrized molecular dynamics

To clarify the mirror energy differences (MEDs) of the proton-unbound nucleus $^{29}$Cl and their microscopic origins, we investigate the low-lying states of the $^{29}$Cl-$^{29}$Mg mirror pair using antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. The calculation reasonably reproduces the normal and intruder states of $^{29}$Mg, while suggesting alternative spin-parity assignments for $^{29}$Cl. The $1/2^+$ and $3/2^+$ states are predicted to form a nearly degenerate ground-state doublet with a small MED because of their similar intrinsic structures. In contrast, the $3/2^-$ and $7/2^-$ intruder states exhibit large negative MEDs and are assigned to the observed resonances at approximately 500~keV and 1.1~MeV, respectively. Their large MEDs originate from the reduced Coulomb energies associated with the stronger deformation and spatially extended proton distributions in the intruder configurations.
