The convergence of the effective field theory (EFT) approach of Furnstahl, Serot and Tang to the nuclear many-body problem is studied by applying it to selected doubly-magic nuclei far from stability. An independently developed code, which…
Theory and prospects of Compton scattering on nucleons and light nuclei below 500 MeV are outlined; cf. Refs. [1-3]. Invited contribution at the Workshop to Explore Physics Opportunities with Intense, Polarized Electron Beams with Energy up…
[Abridged] This review article presents the progress made over the last decade, since the introduction of effective field theories (EFTs) into post-Newtonian (PN) gravity. These have been put forward in the context of gravitational waves…
This is a brief review of the collider phenomenology of neutrino physics. Current and future colliders provide an ideal testing ground for (sub)TeV-scale neutrino mass models, as they can directly probe the messenger particles, which could…
Current and future electron and neutrino scattering experiments will be greatly aided by a better understanding of the role played by short-range correlations in nuclei. Two-body physics, including nucleon-nucleon correlations and two-body…

Electromagnetic interactions serve as essential probes for studying and testing our understanding of the atomic nucleus, as they reveal emergent properties across the nuclear chart. We analyse their corresponding observables, which relate…
The J-PARC facility is near completion and experiments will start in 2009 on nuclear and particle physics projects. In this article, the J-PARC facility is introduced, and possible projects are discussed in high-energy hadron physics by…
An algebraic description of basic physical fields (neutrino field, electron-positron field and electromagnetic field) is studied. It is sown that the electromagnetic field can be described within a quotient representation of the proper…
In high centre-of-mass energy lepton-nucleon collisions the space-time time resolution of partonic processes can be {\it fine-tuned} within a dynamical range which is unattainable in hadronic collisions. Replacing nucleons by nuclei of…

Some recent developments in the description of nuclear forces and few-nucleon dynamics derived from chiral effective field theory are reviewed.
Steven Weinberg's seminal papers from 1990-92 initiated the use of effective field theories (EFTs) for nuclei. We summarize progress, priorities, and open questions for nuclear EFT developments based on the 2019 INT program "Nuclear…
Collective modes emerge as the relevant degrees of freedom that govern low-energy excitations of atomic nuclei. These modes - rotations, pairing rotations, and vibrations - are separated in energy from non-collective excitations, making it…
We summarize our recent work dealing with the construction of the nucleon-nucleon potential and associated electromagnetic currents up to one loop in chiral effective field theory ($\chi$EFT). The magnetic dipole operators derived from…

During the past two decades, it has been demonstrated that chiral effective field theory represents a powerful tool to deal with nuclear forces in a systematic and model-independent way. Two-, three-, and four-nucleon forces have been…
This whitepaper is an outcome of the workshop Intersections between Nuclear Physics and Quantum Information held at Argonne National Laboratory on 28-30 March 2018 [www.phy.anl.gov/npqi2018/]. The workshop brought together 116 national and…
In this survey, we review some of the low energy quantum predictions of General Relativity which are independent of details of the yet unknown high-energy completion of the gravitational interaction. Such predictions can be extracted using…
In the first part of the talk, I discussed the nature of the effective theory that describes the properties of the pion-nucleon-interaction at low energies, using the static model as a starting point. In the second part, I then pointed out…
