We review strategies to unveil the primordial large-$x$ structure of the nucleons as well as the pion from hard-scattering experiments. Ideas are presented for learning about the $x\to 1$ limit of nonperturbative QCD dynamics at energy…
We argue that the description of meson-nucleon dynamics based on the boson-exchange approach, is compatible with the description of the nucleon as a soliton in the nonrelativistic limit. Our arguments are based on an analysis of the…
We present results of the first fully-dynamical lattice QCD determination of hyperon-nucleon scattering. One s-wave phase shift was determined for n Lambda scattering in both spin-channels at pion masses of 350, 490, and 590 MeV, and for n…
The large-$N_c$ limit of the meson-baryon effective Lagrangian is shown to reduce to a semiclassical field theory. A chiral bag structure emerges naturally in the $N_c\rightarrow \infty$ limit. A possible connection between the chiral bag…

One-loop scattering amplitudes in N=4 super Yang-Mills (SYM) theories are analyzed in the paradigm of maximal helicity violating Feynman diagrams. There are very limited number of loop integrals to be evaluated. For a process with n…

Elastic cross sections are calculated and compared with the data on $\pi^{\pm}$ scattering on $^{28}$Si, $^{40}$Ca, $^{58}$Ni, $^{208}$Pb nuclei in the energy range from 130 to 290 MeV. To this end, both the folding optical potential (OP)…
The observation of the coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CE$\nu$NS) provides us opportunities to explore a wide class of new physics. In the Standard Model (SM), the CE$\nu$NS process arises from the vector and axial-vector…
We analyse the baryon mass spectrum in a framework which combines the 1/Nc expansion with chiral perturbation theory. Meson loop contributions involving the full SU(3) octet of pseudoscalar Goldstone bosons are evaluated, and the influence…
We study the vector and scalar meson-meson amplitudes up to \sqrt{s}\lesssim 1.4 GeV and their associated spectroscopy. The study has been done considering jointly the N/D method, Chiral Symmetry and implications from large N_c QCD. The N/D…
An exploratory study is made of the nucleon-nucleon $s$-wave scattering lengths in quenched lattice QCD with the Wilson quark action. The $\pi$-$N$ and $\pi$-$\pi$ scattering lengths are also calculated for comparison. The calculations are…
We enforce chiral Ward identities on the vertices of the linear sigma model to take into account the width of the scalar sigma, considered as a true physical resonance. We consider pion scattering at very low energies and, from a fit to the…

The s-wave correlated $\pi$-$\pi$ strength distribution in cold nuclear matter is investigated. The in-medium single pions are renormalized by means of the usual p-wave couplings to nucleons and $\Delta$'s. Two groups of models for the…
