The effects of the deuteron breakup are estimated for the $\Lambda$-deuteron momentum correlation function. Faddeev amplitudes in calculating low-energy $\Lambda$-deuteron scattering can provide not only the elastic scattering part but also…
In this work, we study the longitudinal response function of the deuteron up to next-to-next-to-leading order in chiral effective field theory (Chiral EFT). We use an approach that maintains exact renormalization group (RG) invariance at…
The nonperturbative nature of inter-nucleon interactions is explored by varying the momentum cutoff of a two-nucleon potential. Conventional force models, which have large cutoffs, are nonperturbative because of strong short-range…
Chiral effective field theories have a long history studying the process of Compton scattering on the nucleon. In this contribution I want to focus on the new developments that have occured since the last Chiral Dynamics conference in Mainz…
Modern effective-theory techniques are applied to the nuclear many-body problem. A novel approach is proposed for the renormalization of operators in a manner consistent with the construction of the effective potential. To test this…

The renormalization of the chiral np interaction with Delta-excitations in intermediate states is considered at next-to-leading order (NLO) and next-to-next-to-leading order (N2LO) for central waves. The inclusion of the Delta-excitation as…
We construct a nuclear interaction in chiral effective field theory with explicit inclusion of the $\Delta$-isobar $\Delta(1232)$ degree of freedom at all orders up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO). We use pion-nucleon ($\pi N$)…
The chiral low-energy constants c_D and c_E are constrained by means of accurate ab initio calculations of the A=3 binding energies and, for the first time, of the triton beta decay. We demonstrate that these low-energy observables allow a…

I review some basic facts about the chiral limit of QCD. This allows to formulate an effective field theory below the chiral symmetry breaking scale, chiral perturbation theory (CHPT). I show that for threshold reactions, the spectrum of…
We consider the low-energy effects of a selected set of Lorentz- and CPT-violating quark and gluon operators by deriving the corresponding chiral effective lagrangian. Using this effective lagrangian, low-energy hadronic observables can be…

Nogga, Timmermans and van Kolck recently argued that Weinberg's power counting in the few-nucleon sector is inconsistent and requires modifications. Their argument is based on the observed cutoff dependence of the nucleon-nucleon scattering…
