- Abstract
We review the calculation of the Hoyle state of C in nuclear lattice effective field theory (NLEFT) and its anthropic implications in the nucleosynthesis of C and O in red giant stars. We also analyse the extension of NLEFT to the regime of medium-mass nuclei, with emphasis on the determination of the ground-state energies of the α nuclei O, Ne, Mg, and Si by Euclidean time projection. Finally, we discuss recent NLEFT results for the spectrum, electromagnetic properties, and α-cluster structure of O.
