Abstract

In this proceedings we present recent results from lattice simulations with chiral effective field theory up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order. We discuss our investigation on the degree of locality of the short-range nucleon-nucleon interactions. We also discuss ground state energies of light and medium-mass nuclei as well as new algorithms for the proton and neutron density distributions and other properties.
