Using the resonance model, which was successfully applied for the study of the $pp{\to}p{\Lambda}K^+$ reaction, we investigate $NN{\to}N{\Sigma}K$ reactions that should provide cleaner information about resonance excitations and meson…
In this review we present the recent advances for calculations of the reactions $NN\to NN\pi$ using chiral effective field theory. Discussed are the next-to-next-to leading order loop contributions with nucleon and Delta-isobar for near…
The 3N forces due to pi-rho, pi-sigma and pi-omega exchanges following from the nucleon Born diagrams and diagrams with an intermediate N^{*}(1440) are re-analyzed. The cancellation between pi-sigma and pi-omega forces is rather sensitive…
It is argued that Weinberg's approach to the nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction problem within effective field theory provides a consistent power counting for renormalized diagrams. Within this scheme the NN potential is organized as an…
The sensitivity of the deuteron and of $pp$ scattering to the $\pi NN$ and $\rho NN$ coupling constants is investigated systematically. We find that the deuteron can be described about equally well with either {\it large $\pi$ and $\rho$}…
We introduce a new method to construct, within inverse-scattering theory, an energy-independent separable potential capable of reproducing exactly both phase shift and absorption over a predefined energy range. The approach relies on the…
We investigate p-wave pion production in nucleon-nucleon collisions up to next-to-next-to-leading order in chiral effective field theory. In particular, we show that it is possible to describe simultaneously the p-wave amplitudes in the…
We apply the chiral color dielectric model to low- and medium-energy scattering within the coupled $\pi$N and $\pi\Delta$ system. Dynamic baryon states in which quarks are confined by the scalar color-dielectric field are constructed in…

We present a calculation of the radiative capture cross section $p(n,\gamma )d$ in the low-energy range, where the $M1$ reaction channel dominates. Employing the LENPIC nucleon-nucleon interaction up to the fifth order (N4LO) that is…
The electroexcitation of the ${\cal N}^*(1440)$ Roper resonance, which defines the first radially excited state of the nucleon, is examined within the soft-wall AdS/QCD model. Such excited Fock states are characterized by the leading…
The value of the $\Lambda(1405){\bar K}N$ coupling constant $g_{\Lambda(1405)\bar{K}N}$ is obtained by fitting it to the experimental data on the total cross sections of the $K^-p \to \pi^0\Sigma^0$ reaction. On the basis of an effective…
The large variety of experimental data around the pion-production threshold are compared with a meson-exchange isobar model which includes the pion-nucleon interaction in s-- and p-waves. Theoretical results obtained with two different NN…
As a step toward performing a complete coupled-channels analysis of the world data of pi N, gamma^* N --> pi N, eta N, pi pi N reactions, the pi N --> pi pi N reactions are investigated starting with the dynamical coupled-channels model…
A recent cross section measurement of the deuteron breakup reaction $pd\to (pp)(0^\circ)+n(180^\circ)$, in the GeV region in a kinematics similar to backward $pd$ elastic scattering, strongly contradicts predictions of a $pd \to dp$ model…
A new mechanism for the pp --> pp pi0 reaction close to threshold is suggested coming from the isoscalar excitation of the Roper and its decay into N(pi pi)S-wave, with one of the pi0 emitted and the other one reabsorbed on the second…
I describe recent progress towards a theory of the NN force which captures the consequences of QCD's chiral symmetry and the pattern of its breaking, and is formulated as an expansion in a ratio of low and high mass scales, M_{lo}/M_{hi}.…
It is shown that the relative sign between the $NN\omega$ and $\pi\rho\omega$ coupling constants can be determined most sensitively from $\omega$ production processes in $NN$ collisions. Recent data on these reactions clearly favor the sign…
pi-N and pi-pi interactions near threshold are uniquely sensitive to the chiral symmetry breaking part of the strong interaction. The pi-N sigma-term value with its implications for nucleon quark structure and the recent controversy…
