The T matrix of the LambdaN-> NN reaction, which is a strangeness changing weak process, is derived. The explicit formulas of the spin observables are given for s-wave p-Lambda final states which kinematically corresponds to inverse…
We analyzed the results for finite nuclei and infinite nuclear and neutron matter using the standard $\sigma-\omega$ model and with the effective field theory. For the first time, we have shown here quantitatively that the inclusion of…
We analyze the recent data on the non-mesonic decays of light Lambda-hypernuclei up to ^12_Lambda C using the phenomenological model of Block and Dalitz. Fitting the spin-isospin dependent Lambda N -> NN reaction rates to six data points,…
In this proceeding we summarize results for baryonic contact terms derived within SU(3) chiral effective field theory. The four-baryon contact terms, necessary for the description of the hyperon-nucleon interaction, include SU(3) symmetric…
Nonmesonic weak decays of the A=4, and 5 hypernuclei are studied. The short range parts of the hyperon-nucleon weak interactions are described by the direct quark (DQ) weak transition potential, while the longer range interactions are given…
Built on the seminal works by Jackson-Treiman-Wyld and Ebel-Feldman, we derive the most general free neutron differential decay rate where all massive particles (neutron, proton and electron) are polarized. This introduces 33 new…
The bare nucleon-nucleon interaction is essential for the production of pair correlations in nuclei, but an important contribution also arises from the induced interaction resulting from the exchange of collective vibrations between…
We study radiative corrections to neutron beta decay and low-energy (anti)neutrino-nucleon scattering within a top-down effective field theory approach. As it was recently shown, a few electromagnetic and electroweak low-energy coupling…
In this work we investigate the implication of $K\to \pi \nu \bar{\nu}$ from the recent KOTO and NA62 measurements for generic neutrino interactions and the new physics scale in effective field theories. The interactions between quarks and…
The processes involving low energy $\bar{K}N$ and $Y\pi$ interactions (where $Y= \Sigma$ or $\Lambda$) are studied in the framework of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory with the $\Lambda$(1405) resonance appearing as an independent…
Nonperturbative effective field theory calculations for NN scattering seem to break down at rather low momenta. By examining several toy models, we clarify how effective field theory expansions can in general be used to properly separate…
We employ the chiral nucleon-nucleon potential derived in ref.[1] to study bound and scattering states in the two-nucleon system. At next-to-leading order, this potential is the sum of renormalized one-pion and two-pion exchange and contact…
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…
The Majorana Double Charge Exchange (MDCE) provides a suitable environment for studying the dynamics of the neutrinoless double beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay, particularly short-range correlations among nucleons. The study of the pion…
Using effective field theory we prove inequalities for the correlations of two-nucleon operators in low-energy symmetric nuclear matter. For physical values of operator coefficients in the effective Lagrangian, the S = 1, I = 0 channel…
The low energy structure of a theory containing light and heavy particle species which are separated by a mass gap can adequately be described by an effective theory which contains only the light particles. In this work we present a…
The parity-violating (PV) nucleon-nucleon ($N\!N$) interaction in the three-nucleon system is investigated using pionless effective field theory ($\mathrm{EFT}(/\!\!\!\pi)$). This work shows that a next-to-leading order (NLO) PV three-body…
We systematically study two-body nonleptonic decays of light lambda hyperon $\Lambda \to p \pi^- (n\pi^0)$ with account for both short- and long-distance effects. The short-distance effects are induced by five topologies of external and…
An effective field theory is used to describe light nuclei, calculated from quantum chromodynamics on a lattice at unphysically large pion masses. The theory is calibrated at leading order to two available data sets on two- and three-body…
