Anchoring our understanding of low-energy nuclear and hadronic physics to the fundamental theory of strong interactions, QCD, remains and outstanding challenge for physicists. Lattice QCD and chiral perturbation theory are the most powerful…
The charged kaon decay channel K_l3gamma^+ allows for studies of direct CP violation, possibly due to non-standard mechanisms, with the help of T-odd correlation variables. In order to be able to extract a CP-violating signal from…
The Lambda(1405) baryon resonance plays an outstanding role in various aspects in hadron and nuclear physics. It has been considered that the Lambda(1405) resonance is generated by the attractive interaction of the antikaon and the nucleon,…
We discuss the results of a systematic calculation of the next-to-next-to-leading order amplitude for the pp -> pp\pi^0 S-wave production at the threshold in heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory. We find six new diagrams, two of which…
Rare kaon decays are an important testing ground of the electroweak flavor theory: They can provide new signals of CP-violating phenomena. The interplay of long-distance QCD effects in strangeness-changing transitions can be analyzed with…
The discrepancies found between S-wave and P-wave fits for hyperon decays are reinvestigated using the heavy baryon chiral Lagrangian formalism. The agreement is found to improve through the inclusion of previously omitted diagrams. The…

This talk concerns some theoretical patterns of the helicity amplitudes for t --> W b decay. The patterns involve both the standard model's four decay helicity amplitudes, A_{SM}, and also the amplitudes A_{+} in the case of an additional…
We analyze the recent total cross section data for $pp \to p\Lambda K^+$ near threshold measured at COSY. Using an effective range approximation for the on-shell $p\Lambda$ S-wave final state interaction we extract from these data the…
We reanalyse the recent version of the chiral model of weak radiative hyperon decays, proposed by Borasoy and Holstein. It is shown that predictions of the analysed model are significantly changed when one accepts the usual classification…
We extend our recent non-perturbative chiral SU(3) coupled channel approach to pion- and photon-induced $\eta$- and $K$-meson production off protons by including all strong and electromagnetic p-wave multipoles. We identify the p-wave…
Charm and bottom mesons and baryons are incorporated into a low energy chiral Lagrangian. Interactions of the heavy hadrons with light octet Goldstone bosons are studied in a framework which represents a synthesis of chiral perturbation…
We extend a chiral effective field theory approach to the $\Lambda$-nuclei interaction with the inclusion of the decuplet baryons. More precisely, we study the contributions due to the long-range two-pion exchange, with $\Sigma$ and…
We consider the effective theory for the low-energy modes of SU(2) gauge theory on the three-sphere. By explicitely integrating out the high-energy modes, the one-loop correction to the hamiltonian for this problem is obtained. We calculate…
We analyze the Okubo SU(3) relation among the hyperon magnetic moments in the usual scheme of chiral perturbation theory (ChPT). We classify the one-loop diagrams, including those with intermediate decuplet baryons, in a simple way…
The BESIII collaboration has recently reported the first time measurement of the decay asymmetry $\alpha(\Lambda_c^+ \to \Xi^0 K^+) = 0.01 \pm 0.16(stat.) \pm 0.03(syst.)$ and also a sizable phase shift of $\delta_P-\delta_S = -1.55 \pm…
Effective field theory techniques are used to describe the interaction of heavy hadrons in a model independent way. Predictability is obtained by exploiting the symmetries of QCD. Heavy hadron chiral perturbation theory is reviewed and used…
We calculate the complete $T$-matrices of pion-nucleon ($\pi N$) scattering to the third order in heavy baryon SU(3) chiral perturbation theory. The baryon mass in the chiral limit $M_0$ and the low-energy constants are determined by…
We derive the scattering amplitude for Goldstone bosons of chiral symmetry off the pseudoscalar charmed mesons up to leading one-loop order in a covariant chiral effective field theory, using the so-called extended-on-mass-shell…
