We show theoretical results for $(\gamma, \pi^0 \pi^0)$ production on nucleons and nuclei in the kinematical region where the scalar isoscalar $\pi \pi$ amplitude is influenced by the $\sigma$ pole. The final state interaction of the pions…
Proton-neutron (p-n) interactions and its various aspects in $N\approx Z$ nuclei of $g_{9/2}$- and $f_{7/2}$ subshell are studied using a schematic model interaction with four force parameters proposed recently. It is shown that the model…
Using results from the chiral perturbation theory for the s-wave interaction and the delta-resonance model for the p-wave interaction of pions with nucleons, we have evaluated the spectral functions of pions in asymmetric nuclear matter…
We calculate at two-loop order the complex-valued scattering amplitude related to the twice-iterated scalar-isovector boson-exchange between nucleons. In comparison to the once-iterated boson-exchange amplitude it shows less dependence on…
Using an isospin-dependent transport model, we study isospin effects on two-nucleon correlation functions in heavy-ion collisions induced by neutron-rich nuclei at intermediate energies. We find that these correlation functions are…
We derive from the subleading contributions to the chiral three-nucleon force (long-range terms, published in Phys.\,Rev.\,C\,77, 064004 (2008)) a density-dependent two-nucleon interaction $V_\text{med}$ in isospin-symmetric, spin-saturated…
The structure of the weak axial pion exchange current is discussed in various models. It is shown how the interplay of the chiral invariance and the double counting problem restricts uniquely the form of the pion potential term, in the case…
The exchange of a single pion does not contribute to $N\alpha$ scattering, due to the isoscalar nature of the target. Therefore peripheral $N\alpha$ scattering may be used to probe existing models for the two-pion exchange component of the…
The production of pions emitted backward in inelastic neutrino-nucleus interactions is analyzed within the impulse approximation in the framework of the dual parton model. We focus on the $Q^2$-dependence of the multiplicity of negative…
Based upon the Bonn meson-exchange-model for the nucleon-nucleon ($NN$) interaction, we calculate the charge-independence breaking (CIB) of the $NN$ interaction due to pion-mass splitting. Besides the one-pion-exchange (OPE), we take into…
We use a recently improved density-matrix expansion to calculate the nuclear energy density functional in the framework of in-medium chiral perturbation theory. Our calculation treats systematically the effects from $1\pi$-exchange,…
The notion of interacting elementary particles for low and medium energy nuclear physics is associated with definitions of potential operators. In principle, this potential carries the rich substructure consisting of quarks and gluons and…
The scalar-isoscalar term in the two-pion exchange $NN$ potential is abnormally large and does not respect the hierarchy of effects predicted by chiral perturbation theory. We argue that this anomaly is associated with non-perturbative…
Our previous study of the near-threshold pp\to pp\pi^0 reaction based on a hybrid nuclear effective field theory is further elaborated by examining the momentum dependence of the relevant transition operators. We show that the two-pion…
We present realistic models of pion-exchange three-nucleon interactions obtained by fitting the energies of all the 17 bound or narrow states of 3 <= A <= 8 nucleons, calculated with less than 2% error using the Green's function Monte Carlo…
Nuclear potentials are known to exhibit a considerable degree of scheme dependence. For one- and two-pion exchange nucleon-nucleon (NN) potentials, unitary ambiguities start showing up at the level of the leading relativistic corrections to…

Recent calculations of $s$-wave pion production have severely underestimated the accurately known $pp\rightarrow pp\pi^0$\ total cross section near threshold. In these calculations, only the single-nucleon axial-charge operator is…
The doubly differential cross sections for the $^4$He$(\pi^+,\pi^-) 4p$ reaction were calculated using both a two-nucleon sequential single charge exchange model and an intranuclear cascade code. Final state interactions between the two…
The radiative capture process n+p-> d+gamma provides clear evidence for meson exchange currents in nuclear physics. We compute this process at low energies using a recently developed power counting for the effective field theory that…
