Light-nuclei spectra from chiral dynamics
In recent years local chiral interactions have been derived and implemented in quantum
Monte Carlo methods for nuclear physics to test to what extent chiral effectice field theory
framework impacts our knowledge of few- and many-body systems. We present quantum
Monte Carlo calculations of light nuclei based on local chiral two-nucleon interactions constructed 
by our group in a previous work in conjuction with a chiral three-nucleon force fitted
to bound- and scattering-state observables in the three-body sector. These results lead to
predictions for the energy levels and level ordering of nuclei in the mass range A = 4-12,
accurate to <=  2% of the binding energy, in very satisfactory agreement with experimental
data.
