Abstract

Chiral effective field theory ( $\chi$ EFT) is a powerful tool for studying electroweak processes in nuclei. I discuss $\chi$ EFT calculations of three key nuclear electroweak processes: primordial deuterium production, proton-proton fusion, and magnetic dipole excitations of $^{48}\mathrm{Ca}$ . This article showcases $\chi$ EFT's ability to quantify theory uncertainties at the appropriate level of rigor for addressing the different precision demands of these three processes.
