Two-pion exchange electromagnetic current in chiral effective field theory using the method of unitary transformation

Nuclear Theory 2009-11-05 v1

Abstract

We derive the leading two-pion exchange contributions to the two-nucleon electromagnetic current operator in the framework of chiral effective field theory using the method of unitary transformation. Explicit results for the current and charge densities are given in momentum and coordinate space.
