We report a high-precision calculation of the photodetachment energy of the hydrogen anion \mathrm{H}^{-}. The nonrelativistic bound-state energy is obtained using an exact three-body approach, and supplemented by leading relativistic,…
The doublet channel neutron-deuteron scattering amplitude is calculated in leading order effective field theory (EFT). It is shown that this amplitude does not depend on a constant contact interaction three-body force. Satisfactory…
Recent advances in nuclear structure theory have significantly enlarged the accessible part of the nuclear landscape via ab initio many-body calculations. These developments open new ways for microscopic studies of light, medium-mass and…
The photon analyzing power for the photodisintegration of the deuteron was measured for seven gamma-ray energies between 2.39 and 4.05 MeV using the linearly polarized gamma-ray beam of the High-Intensity Gamma-ray Source at the Duke…
The cross section of neutron-deuteron radiative capture $n d\to {^3H}\gamma$ is calculated at energies relevant to Big-Bang nucleosynthesis ($ 20 \leq E \leq 200 $ Kev) with pionless Effective Field Theory. At these energies, magnetic…
The photodisintegration of $^9$Be in the energy region lower than $E_\gamma = 16$ MeV is investigated by using the $\alpha$~+~$\alpha$~+~$n$ three-body model and the complex scaling method. The cross section exhibits two aspects in the…
We use an effective field theory (EFT) which contains only short-range interactions to study the dependence of a variety of three-nucleon observables on the pion mass. The pion-mass dependence of input quantities in our ``pionless'' EFT is…
The neutron-matter equation of state constrains the properties of many physical systems over a wide density range and can be studied systematically using chiral effective field theory (EFT). In chiral EFT, all many-body forces among…
The virtues of an effective field theory (EFT) approach to many-body problems are illustrated by deriving the expansion for the energy of an homogeneous, interacting Fermi gas at low density and zero temperature. A renormalization scheme…
I review the effective field theory (EFT) description of gravitating compact objects. The focus is on kinematic regimes where gravity is perturbative, in particular the adiabatic inspiral phase relevant to gravitational wave detection. For…
The objectives of the present work are twofold. The first is to address and resolve some of the differences present in independent, chiral-effective-field-theory (\chiEFT) derivations up to one loop, recently appeared in the literature, of…
Radiative corrections are playing an increasingly significant role in low-energy nuclear physics. We investigate the influence of photons as explicit degrees of freedom within nuclear EFT on the deuteron binding energy, charge form factor,…
In view of its relation to Big-Bang Nucleo-Synthesis and a reported discrepancy between nuclear models and data taken at S-DALINAC, electro-induced deuteron break-up 2H(e,e' p)n is studied at momentum transfer q<100MeV and close to…
We analyze the power counting of two-body currents in nuclear effective field theories (EFTs). We find that the existence of non-perturbative physics at low energies, which is manifest in the existence of the deuteron and the 1S0 NN virtual…
This contribution is an advertisement for applying effective field theory (EFT) to many-body problems, including nuclei and cold atomic gases. Examples involving three-body interactions are used to illustrate how EFT's quantify and…
Photon absorption by a quark in one nucleon followed by its high momentum transfer interaction with a quark in the other may produce two final-state nucleons with high relative momentum. We sum the relevant quark rescattering diagrams, to…
In the strangeness $S=-2$ sector, we study the $\Xi^{-}nn$ ($I=3/2, J^P={1/2}^+$) three-body system using pionless halo effective field theory (EFT), which provides a systematic model independent framework for assessing the feasibility of…
We use chiral effective field theory (EFT) to make predictions for the longitudinal electromagnetic response function of the deuteron, f_L, which is measured in d(e,e'N) reactions. In this case the impulse approximation gives the full…
An effective field theory (EFT) for a nuclear reaction at low energies is studied. The astrophysical $S$-factor of radiative $\alpha$ capture on $^{12}$C at the Gamow-peak energy, $T_G=0.3$ MeV, is a fundamental quantity in…
Fully converged calculations of deuteron-deuteron elastic scattering observables are performed at energies above three- and four-body breakup threshold. Differential cross sections and analyzing powers are obtained using realistic…
