Nuclear effective field theory: status and perspectives

HW Hammer, S König, U Van Kolck - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2020 - APS
The nuclear-physics landscape has been redesigned as a sequence of effective field
theories (EFTs) connected to the standard model through symmetries and lattice simulations …

Chiral perturbation theory for heavy hadrons and chiral effective field theory for heavy hadronic molecules

L Meng, B Wang, GJ Wang, SL Zhu - Physics Reports, 2023 - Elsevier
Chiral symmetry and its spontaneous breaking play an important role both in the light
hadron and heavy hadron systems. The chiral perturbation theory (χ PT) is the low energy …

Improved chiral nucleon-nucleon potential up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order

E Epelbaum, H Krebs, UG Meißner - The European Physical Journal A, 2015 - Springer
We present improved nucleon-nucleon potentials derived in chiral effective field theory up to
next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order. We argue that the nonlocal momentum-space …

Modern theory of nuclear forces

E Epelbaum, HW Hammer, UG Meißner - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2009 - APS
Effective field theory allows for a systematic and model-independent derivation of the forces
between nucleons in harmony with the symmetries of quantum chromodynamics. The …

Effective field theory for few-nucleon systems

PF Bedaque, U Van Kolck - Annual Review of Nuclear and …, 2002 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract We review the effective field theories (EFTs) developed for few-nucleon systems.
These EFTs are controlled expansions in momenta, where certain (leading-order) …

The three-boson system with short-range interactions

PF Bedaque, HW Hammer, U Van Kolck - Nuclear Physics A, 1999 - Elsevier
We discuss renormalization of the non-relativistic three-body problem with short-range
forces. The problem is non-perturbative at momenta of the order of the inverse of the two …

Nuclear forces from chiral Lagrangians using the method of unitary transformation II: the two-nucleon system

E Epelbaum, W Gloeckle, UG Meißner - Nuclear Physics A, 2000 - Elsevier
We employ the chiral nucleon–nucleon potential derived in [Nucl. Phys. A 637 (1998) 107] to
study bound and scattering states in the two-nucleon system. At next-to-leading order, this …

Nucleon-nucleon effective field theory without pions

JW Chen, G Rupak, MJ Savage - Nuclear Physics A, 1999 - Elsevier
Nuclear processes involving momenta much below the mass of the pion may be described
by an effective field theory in which the pions do not appear as explicit degrees of freedom …
