We derive from the subleading contributions to the chiral three-nucleon force (short-range terms and relativistic corrections, published in Phys. Rev. C84, 054001 (2011)) a density-dependent two-nucleon interaction $V_\text{med}$ in…
The long-range terms of the subleading chiral three-nucleon force [published in Phys.\,Rev.\,C77, 064004 (2008)] are specified to the case of three neutrons. From these $3n$-interactions an effective density-dependent neutron-neutron…

Results for the antinucleon-nucleon ($\bar NN$) interaction obtained at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order in chiral effective field theory (EFT) are reported. A new local regularization scheme is used for the pion-exchange contributions…
We discuss the systematics of power counting in general effective field theories, focussing on those that are nonrenormalizable at leading order. As an illuminating example we consider chiral perturbation theory gauged under the…
We consider pion-nucleon scattering in heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory to third order. All electromagnetic corrections appearing to this order are included. We thus have a consistent description of strong and electromagnetic…
We extend the renormalization of the NN interaction with Chiral Two Pion Exchange Potential to the calculation of non-central partial wave phase shifts with total angular momentum j<=5 . The short distance singularity structure of the…
We study perturbativeness of chiral nuclear forces in the $^3P_0$ channel. In previous works, the focus has been on one-pion exchange, and the applicable window of perturbative pion exchanges has been shown to span from threshold to the…
We consider nucleon-nucleon (NN) interactions from chiral effective field theory. In this work we restrict ourselves to the elastic NN scattering. We apply the N/D method to calculate the NN partial waves taking as input the one-pion…
We investigate the $s$-wave $KN$ scattering up to next-to-leading order within a renormalizable framework of covariant chiral effective field theory. Using time-ordered perturbation theory, the scattering amplitude is obtained by treating…

Three-nucleon forces have been considered to be one possibility to resolve the well known discrepancy between experimental values and theoretical calculations of the nucleon analyzing power in low energy nucleon-deuteron scattering. In this…
In a recent publication, Cirigliano {\it et al.} [Phys. Rev. Lett. 135, 022501 (2025)] argue that three-nucleon forces (3NFs) involving short-range operators that couple two pions with two nucleons are enhanced beyond what is expected in…
I outline why the renormalisation group is needed to analyse the scale dependence and hence determine the power counting for effective theories of strongly interacting systems. I summarise the results of several such analyses for two- and…
