We examine the results of Chiral Effective Field Theory ($\chi$EFT) for the scalar- and spin-dipole polarisabilities of the proton and neutron, both for the physical pion mass and as a function of $m_\pi$. This provides chiral…
Are chiral theories at present describing experimental NN scattering data satisfactorily ?. Will the chiral approach offer a framework where fitting and selecting the existing np and pp data can be done without theoretical bias ?. While…
We consider nucleon-nucleon scattering using the formulation of chiral effective field theory which is claimed to be renormalization group invariant. The cornerstone of this framework is the existence of a well-defined infinite-cutoff limit…
We compute the medium-mass nuclei $^{16}$O and $^{40}$Ca using pionless effective field theory (EFT) at next-to-leading order (NLO). The low-energy coefficients of the EFT Hamiltonian are adjusted to experimantal data for nuclei with mass…
The nuclear physics landscape has been redesigned as a sequence of effective field theories (EFTs) connected to the Standard Model through symmetries and lattice simulations of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). EFTs in this sequence are…
We study axion effective field theories (EFTs), with a focus on axion couplings to massive chiral gauge fields. We investigate the EFT interactions that participate in processes with an axion and two gauge bosons, and we show that, when…
I outline the effective field theory (EFT) calculation of nucleon-nucleon scattering which was recently carried out to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) by Noam Shoresh and myself. In this calculation only potential pion contributions…
We extend the renormalizability study of the formulation of chiral effective field theory with a finite cutoff, applied to nucleon-nucleon scattering, by taking into account non-perturbative effects. We consider the nucleon-nucleon…
We highlight some of the recent advances in the application of chiral effective field theory (chiral EFT) with baryons to the $\pi N$ scattering process. We recall some problems that cast doubt on the applicability of chiral EFT to $\pi N$…
Current models of inter-nucleon interactions are built within the frame of Effective Field Theories (EFTs). Contrary to traditional nuclear potentials, EFT interactions require a renormalization of their parameters in order to derive…
We derive the leading contribution to the four-nucleon force within the framework of chiral effective field theory. It is governed by the exchange of pions and the lowest-order nucleon-nucleon contact interaction and includes effects due to…
In the low-energy region far below the chiral symmetry breaking scale (which is of the order of 1 GeV) chiral perturbation theory provides a model-independent approach for quantitative description of nuclear processes. In the two- and…
We review the effective field theories (EFTs) developed for few-nucleon systems. These EFTs are controlled expansions in momenta, where certain (leading-order) interactions are summed to all orders. At low energies, an EFT with only contact…
The renormalization of iterated one-pion exchange (OPE) is studied in Chiral Effective Field Theory ($\chi$EFT) for the antinucleon-nucleon ($\overline{N}\!N$) system. The OPE potential is cut off at a certain distance and contact…
A method to quantitatively assess the consistency of power-counting proposals in Effective Field Theories (EFT) which are non-perturbative at leading order is presented. The Renormalisation Group evolution of an observable predicts the…
Since Weinberg's proposal two decades ago, chiral effective field theory in the NN sector has been developed and applied up to order $O((Q/M_{hi})^4)$. In principle it could provide a model-independent description of nuclear force from QCD.…
Continuing our effort to build a consistent power counting for chiral nuclear effective field theory (EFT), we discuss the subleading contact interactions, or counterterms, in the singlet channels of nucleon-nucleon scattering, with…
Cutoff independence is an essential requirement for the predictive power of nuclear \textit{ab initio} calculations based on effective field theory (EFT). While it is conventionally assumed that such invariance necessitates high-order…
Two-nucleon effective field theory (EFT) beyond momenta of order the pion mass is studied for both cutoff regularization and dimensional regularization with power divergence subtraction (PDS). Models with two mass scales illustrate how…
Lattice quantum chromodynamics (LQCD) calculations with physical pion mass would revolutionize nuclear physics by enabling predictions based on the fundamental theory of the strong force. To bridge the gap between finite-volume LQCD results…
