First-principles calculations for $c$-coefficients of the isobaric mass multiplet equation in the $1p0f$ shell

We present the first calculations for the $c$-coefficients of the isobaric mass multiplet equation (IMME) for nuclei from $A=42$ to $A=54$ based on input from several realistic nucleon-nucleon interactions. We show that there is clear dependence on the short-ranged charge-symmetry breaking (CSB) part of the strong interaction. There is a significant variation in the CSB part between the commonly used CD-Bonn, N$^3$LO and Argonne V18 nucleon-nucleon interactions. All of them give a CSB contribution that is too large when compared to experiment.
