We study nuclear and neutron matter by combining chiral effective field theory with non-perturbative lattice methods. In our approach nucleons and pions are treated as point particles on a lattice. This allows us to probe larger volumes,…

Chiral effective field theory is utilized for extrapolating results on the $\Lambda_c N$ interaction, obtained in lattice QCD at unphysical (large) quark masses, to the physical point. The pion-mass dependence of the components that…

A confluence of theoretical and technological developments are beginning to make possible contributions to nuclear physics from lattice QCD. Effective field theory plays a critical role in these advances. I give several examples.

We outline the structure of the nuclear force in the framework of chiral effective field theory of QCD and review recent applications to processes involving few nucleons.

I discuss results and applications of QCD nonrelativistic effective field theories for systems with two heavy quarks.

I review basic concepts of chiral effective field theories guided by an historical perspective: from the first ideas to the merging with other effective frameworks, and to the interplay with lattice field theory. The impact of recent…

A brief overview of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) as a non-Abelian gauge field theory, including symmetries and formalism of interest, will precede a focused discussion on the use of an Effective Field Theory (EFT) as a low energy…

Different aspects of the Verlinde and Verlinde relation between high-energy effective scattering in QCD and a two-dimensional sigma-model are discussed. Starting from a lattice version of the truncated 4-dimensional Yang-Mills action we…

A pedagogical introduction to low-energy effective field theories. In some of them, heavy particles are "integrated out" (a typical example - the Heisenberg-Euler EFT); in some heavy particles remain but some of their degrees of freedom are…

The theory of the strong force, Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) remains one of the most important ways to understand the fundamental properties of ordinary matter. However, at low momentum transfer Q2, in the regime where the strong force…

We investigate two-point correlation functions of left-handed currents computed in quenched lattice QCD with the Neuberger-Dirac operator. We consider two lattice spacings a~0.09,0.12 fm and two different lattice extents L~ 1.5, 2.0 fm;…

The workshop 'Hadron Physics at COSY' held from July 7th to July 10th 2003 in Bad Honnef brought together experimentalists and theoreticians from various fields of hadron physics to identify the key physics questions, which can be addressed…

The low energy behaviour of Quantum Chromodynamics makes unreliable an expansion in terms of its coupling strength, since nothing guarantees the convergence of such expansion. To overcomer such difficulty one resorts to Lattice QCD or…

We review how nuclear forces emerge from low-energy QCD via chiral effective field theory. The presentation is accessible to the non-specialist. At the same time, we also provide considerable detailed information (mostly in appendices) for…

We study several issues related to the use of effective field theories in QCD at large baryon density. We show that the power counting is complicated by the appearance of two scales inside loop integrals. Hard dense loops involve the large…

In this summary of the considerations of the QCD working group at Snowmass 2001, the roles of quantum chromodynamics in the Standard Model and in the search for new physics are reviewed, with empahsis on frontier areas in the field. We…

Chiral symmetry and its spontaneous breaking play an important role both in the light hadron and heavy hadron systems. The chiral perturbation theory ($\chi$PT) is the low energy effective field theory of the QCD. In this work, we shall…

Quantum Chromodynamics, the theory of strong interactions, predicts several types of bound states. Among them are mesons ($q\bar{q}$) and baryons ($qqq$), which have been the only states observed in experiments for years. However, in the…

Some recent developments in the description of nuclear forces and few--nucleon systems within the effective field theory approach are reviewed.

We present simulation results for lattice QCD with light pions. For the quark fields we apply chirally symmetric lattice Dirac operators, in particular the overlap hypercube operator, along with the standard overlap operator for comparison.…
