Top: protons striking a nucleus deflect from their original path depending on velocity, location of impact, and force from the protons inside the nucleus. Bottom: elastic proton scattering cross ...

The binding energies per particle for (a) symmetric nuclear matter (SNM) and (b) pure neutron matter (PNM) calculated with (solid lines and full symbols) and without (dotted lines and empty symbols) ...

Strongly interacting systems play an important role in quantum physics and quantum chemistry. Stochastic methods such as Monte Carlo simulations are a proven method for investigating such systems.
