Guided by history, we review the major developments concerning realistic nucleon-nucleon (NN) potentials since the pioneering work by Kuo and Brown on the effective nuclear interaction. Our main emphasis is on the physics underlying various…
We discuss various issues concerning the interactions of nuclei with neutrinos of low impinging energies (i.e. having several tens of MeV to a few hundred MeV) of interest for particle physics, nuclear physics and astrophysics. We focus, in…
Nucleon-nucleon (NN) potential is studied by lattice QCD simulations in the quenched approximation, using the plaquette gauge action and the Wilson quark action on a 32^4 (\simeq (4.4 fm)^4) lattice. A NN potential V_{NN}(r) is defined from…
The standard approach to nuclear physics encodes phase shift information in an NN potential, then decodes that information in forming an effective interaction, appropriate to a low-momentum Hilbert space. Here we show that it is instead…
The Moriond conference on QCD and High Energy Interactions has been a most exciting and interesting event once more. This year's edition has been characterized by a very large amount of new results from the LHC experiments. However, also…
