Ab initio study of nuclear clustering in hot dilute nuclear matter

We present a systematic ab initio study of clustering in hot dilute nuclear matter using nuclear lattice effective field theory with an SU(4)-symmetric interaction. We introduce a method called light-cluster distillation to determine the abundances of dimers, trimers, and alpha clusters as a functio...
