Recent progress towards an understanding of the piNN system within chiral perturbation theory is reported. The focus lies on an effective field theory calculation and its comparison to phenomenological calculations for the reaction NN->d…
Mass- and wave-function renormalization is calculated to order $p^4$ in heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. Two different schemes used in the literature are considered. Several technical issues like field redefinitions,…
Implicit regularization (IR) has been shown as an useful momentum space tool for perturbative calculations in dimension specific theories, such as chiral gauge, topological and supersymmetric quantum field theoretical models at one loop…
We generalize chiral perturbation theory with spinless matter fields in the fundamental representation of ${\rm SU}(N)$ to curved spacetime in the presence of an external gravitational field. This work is motivated by recent interest in…
During the past two decades, it has been demonstrated that chiral effective field theory represents a powerful tool to deal with nuclear forces in a systematic and model-independent way. Two-, three-, and four-nucleon forces have been…
The use of the equations of motion and meson field redefinitions allows the development of a simplified resonance chiral theory lagrangian: terms including resonance fields and a large number of derivatives can be reduced into corresponding…
We review on a chiral power counting for in-medium chiral perturbation theory with nucleons and pions as explicit degrees of freedom coupled to external sources. It allows for a systematic expansion including both local and pion-mediated…
We construct the leading order hyperon-nucleon potential in chiral effective field theory. We show that a good description of the available data is possible and discuss briefly further improvements of this scheme.
I review recent progress made in the calculation of nucleon properties in the framework of heavy baryon CHPT. Topics include: Compton scattering, $\pi N$ scattering, the anatomy of a low-energy constant and the induced pseudoscalar form…
This lecture comprises some recent developments concerning the description of baryons as topological solitons in effective chiral meson theories. In the first part one-loop corrections to the classical tree approximation are discussed. This…
The inverse-amplitude method is applied to the one-loop chiral expansion of the pion, kaon, and $K_{l3}$ form factors. Since these form factors are determined by the same chiral low-energy constants, it is possible to obtain finite…
Chiral effective field theory can provide valuable insight into the chiral physics of hadrons when used in conjunction with non-perturbative schemes such as lattice QCD. In this discourse, the attention is focused on extrapolating the mass…
We consider the chiral Lagrangian with nucleon, isobar, and pion degrees of freedom. The baryon masses and the axial-vector form factor of the nucleon are derived at the one-loop level. We explore the impact of using on-shell baryon masses…
We analyze the moments of the isosinglet generalized parton distributions H, E, H-tilde, E-tilde of the nucleon in one-loop order of heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory. We discuss in detail the construction of the operators in the…
Recent successes in {\it ab initio} calculations of light nuclei (A=2-6) will be reviewed and correlated with the dynamical consequences of chiral symmetry. The tractability of nuclear physics evinced by these results is evidence for that…
We calculate the nucleon-nucleon scattering amplitudes in the 1S0 and 3S1-3D1 channels at next-to-next to leading order starting from a recently proposed non-relativistic chiral effective theory, which includes dibaryon fields as…
We extend our previous study of elastic pion-nucleon scattering in the framework of chiral perturbation theory by performing a combined analysis of the reactions $\pi N \to \pi N$ and $\pi N \to \pi \pi N$. The calculation is carried out to…
The talk contains a short introduction to mesonic Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT). In addition four disparate areas where some progress has been made in recent years are discussed. These are the last fit of the order $p^4$…
We present improved nucleon-nucleon potentials derived in chiral effective field theory up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order. We argue that the nonlocal momentum-space regulator employed in the two-nucleon potentials of Refs. [E.…
A brief introduction to chiral perturbation theory, the effective field theory of quantum chromodynamics at low energies, is given.
