This is a collection of perspective pieces contributed by the participants Institute for Nuclear Theory’s Program on Physics Precision which was held virtually from April 19 to May 7, 2021. The represents reflections vibrant and engaged community researchers status theoretical research in low-energy nuclear physics, challenges ahead, new ideas strategies make progress structure reaction effecti...

We review recent lattice QCD activities with emphasis on the impact on nuclear physics. In particular, the progress toward the determination of nuclear and baryonic forces (potentials) using Nambu-Bethe-Salpeter (NBS) wave functions is presented. We discuss major challenges for multi-baryon systems on the lattice: (i) signal to noise issue and (ii) computational cost issue. We argue that the fo...

The research activitities carried out in Italy during the last two years in the field of theoretical nuclear physics with electroweak probes are reviewed. Different models for electronnucleus and neutrino-nucleus scattering are compared. The results obtained for electromagnetic reactions on few-nucleon systems and on complex nuclei are discussed. The recent developments in the study of electron...

The Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) is an ESFRI-listed distributed facility that entered the implementation phase. The Romanian pillar will focus on the field of nuclear physics research, performed with the help of an ultra-short-pulse, multi-petawatt scale laser system and a brilliant, tuneable and highly collimated gamma beam system. ELI-Nuclear Physics, an open-access facility, shall beco...

My talk will consist of three parts: (a) what every atomic physicist needs to know about the physics of light nuclei [and no more]; (b) what nuclear physicists can do for atomic physics; (c) what atomic physicists can do for nuclear physics. A brief qualitative overview of the nuclear force and calculational techniques for light nuclei will be presented, with an emphasis on debunking myths and ...
