Impact of correlations on nuclear binding energies: Ab initio calculations of singly and doubly open-shell nuclei.

A strong effort will be dedicated in the coming years to extend the reach of ab initio nuclear-structure calculations to heavy doubly open-shell nuclei. In order to do so, the most efficient strategies to incorporate dominant many-body correlations at play in such nuclei must be identified. With this motivation in mind, the present work analyses the step-by-step inclusion of many-body correlations and their impact on binding energies of Calcium and Chromium isotopes.
