Many low-threshold experiments observe sharply rising event rates of yet unknown origins below a few hundred eV, and larger than expected from known backgrounds. Due to the significant impact of this excess on the dark matter or neutrino…
I summarize two recent applications of chiral perturbation theory to electromagnetic reactions on deuterium: elastic electron-deuteron scattering, and Compton scattering on deuterium. Both calculations have now been carried out to three…
We analize the most general low-energy effective lagrangian including local parity violating terms parametrized by an axial chemical potential $\mu_5$. This result is obtained following the external source method, up to $\mathcal{O}(p^4)$…
We summarize the work done in the ``Beyond the Standard Model'' group of the 1995-96 HERA Workshop. Of the various proposed HERA upgrades, the luminosity improvement is the most important for this physics. With an integrated luminosity of 1…
We review the relevance of neutrino-nucleus interactions at energy transfers below 100 MeV for accelerator-based experiments, experiments at lower energies and for astrophysical neutrinos. The impact of low-energy scattering processes in…
A pedagogical introduction to the equivalence theorem for longitudinal vector bosons in electroweak theories is presented and the problem of high-energy behaviour of scattering amplitudes in the Standard Model is briefly reviewed. To make…
