Properties of nuclear matter within the JISP16 $NN$ interaction

Saturation properties of the JISP16 $NN$ interaction are studied in symmetric nuclear matter calculations, with special attention paid to the convergence properties with respect to the number of partial waves. We also present results of pure neutron matter calculations with the JISP16 interaction.
