Basing on the branching fractions of J/\psi \to VP from different experiments, we investigate on the properties of the coupling constants of J/\psi \to VP decays with a model-dependent approach. We find that the octet coupling constant,…
In this article, we study the contribution from the final-state interactions to the strong coupling constant $g_{D^* D \pi}$. We take an assumption that the momentum transfers in the strong decay $D^{*+} \to D^0 \pi^+$ be large to validate…
We present a calculation of the fourth-order (NLO) contribution to spin-dependent Compton scattering in heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory, and we give results for the four spin polarisabilities. No low-energy constants, except for the…
The Coulomb-like backward peak of the neutron-proton scattering differential cross section is due to one-pion exchange. Extrapolation to the pion pole of precise data should allow to obtain the value of the charged pion-nucleon coupling…
The present paper reports high-accuracy cross-section data for the 2H(n,nnp) reaction in the neutron-proton (np) and neutron-neutron (nn) final-state-interaction (FSI) regions at an incident mean neutron energy of 13.0 MeV. These data were…
The isoscalar and isovector scattering lengths (b_0,b_1) are determined using a unitarized coupled channel approach based on chiral Lagrangians. Using experimental values of pionic hydrogen and deuterium as well as low energy pi N…
Differential cross sections for Compton scattering from the deuteron were measured at MAX-lab for incident photon energies of 55 MeV and 66 MeV at nominal laboratory angles of $45^\circ$, $125^\circ$, and $135^\circ$. Tagged photons were…

The structure functions g1p and g1n have been measured over the range 0.014 < x < 0.9 and 1 < Q2 < 40 GeV2 using deep-inelastic scattering of 48 GeV longitudinally polarized electrons from polarized protons and deuterons. We find that the…
Deuteron elastic scattering from 15C and inelastic scattering reactions to the first excited state of 15C were studied using a radioactive beam of 15C in inverse kinematics. The scattered deuterons were measured using HELIOS. The elastic…
The recent measurement of the nuclear anapole moment of 133Cs has been interpreted to yield a value of the weak pion-nucleon coupling H_pi^1 which contradicts the upper limit from the 18F experiments. We argue that because of the…
We match the known chiral perturbation theory representation of the pi pi scattering amplitude to two loops with a phenomenological description that relies on the Roy equations. On this basis, the corrections to Weinberg's low energy…
We consider few problems which are related to the deuteron and have simple analytical solution. Relation is found between the deuteron electric quadrupole moment and the $np$-scattering amplitude. The degree of circular polarization of…
We compute the 1-loop (NNLO) corrections to hard spectator-scattering in tree-dominated hadronic B decays. Depending on the values of hadronic input parameters the corrections are shown to have a significant impact on the B -> pi pi…
We calculate the leading isospin conserving few-nucleon contributions to pion scattering on $^2$H, $^3$He, and $^4$He. We demonstrate that the strong contributions to the pion-nucleus scattering lengths can be controlled theoretically to an…
Incoherent pion photoproduction on the deuteron is studied for photon energies from threshold up to 1 GeV with special emphasis on polarization observables. The elementary $\gamma N\to\pi N$ amplitude is taken from the MAID model. The…
Recent experimental results for neutron-neutron scattering length are reanalyzed from the point of view of three-nucleon force contribution. We found that the limiting value of $a_{nn}=- 15.8\pm 0.5$~fm must be free of any implicit…
A detailed analysis of the processes of the type NN -> D\pi is presented taking into account the exchange graphs of a nucleon and a pion. A large sensitivity of polarization observables to the off-mass shell effects of nucleons inside the…
The S-wave $\pi - \pi$ scattering lengths $a_0$ and $a_2$ are calculated to the lowest order of $1/N_c$ expansion in the general framework of SU(2) NJL model beyond mean-field approximation. It is shown that using the universal curve of…
In this work, a model for the n p --> d (pi pi) reaction is developed. It is shown that the structure of the deuteron momentum spectra for a neutron beam momentum of 1.46 GeV can be explained as a consequence of the interplay of two…
