We discuss the diffractive photo- and electroproduction of a single neutral pion at high energies where it can occur due to odderon exchange. We show that this process is dynamically suppressed as a consequence of chiral symmetry. Our…
Threshold neutral pion photoproduction on light nuclei is studied in the framework of baryon chiral perturbation theory. We obtain a general formula for the electric dipole amplitude in the special case of neutral pion photoproduction on a…
We investigate threshold pion photoproduction in the framework of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. We give the expansion of the electric dipole amplitude $E_{0+}$ to three orders in $\mu$, the ratio of the pion to nucleon mass, and…
The neutral pion photoproduction on the proton near threshold has a very small scattering cross section when compared to the charged channels, which in ChPT is explained by strong cancellations between the lowest order pieces. Therefore it…
Charge asymmetries in diffractive electroproduction of two mesons are proportional to the interference of Pomeron and Odderon exchange amplitudes. We calculate in the framework of QCD and in the Born approximation a forward-backward charge…
In this talk I review the main features of the coherent/diffractive pion production by neutrinos on nuclei. The method is based on PCAC and relates the reaction $\textbf{boson} + \textbf{nucleus} \to \textbf{pion} + \textbf{nucleus}$ to…
The interference between the Pomeron and possible odderon mechanisms of diffractive pi+pi- photoproduction results in charge asymmetry of the produced pions. The observation of charge asymmetry of pions at moderate M_{pi+pi-} will be an…
We study the reaction of pion photoproduction on the nucleon in the framework of chiral perturbation theory with explicit $\Delta(1232)$ degrees of freedom. In the covariant approach, we give results up to order $\epsilon^3$ in the small…
The neutral pion electroproduction on the proton is considered in the framework phenomenological model based on the PCAC, current algebra with hard pions and chiral symmetry breaking interaction. The s- wave differential cross-section of…
The neutrino pion production off the nucleon is traditionally described in the literature by means of the weak excitation of the Delta(1232) resonance and its subsequent decay into N pi. Here, we present results from a model that includes…
Threshold neutral pion photoproduction on the deuteron is studied in the framework of baryon chiral perturbation theory beyond next-to--leading order in the chiral expansion. To fourth order in small momenta, the amplitude is finite and a…
Large momentum transfer reactions such as pion production represent the frontier of Chiral Perturbation Theory and must be understood before more complex reactions can be considered. Pion production is also interesting in its own right, one…
Coherent pion production in low energy neutrino reactions is discussed in the framework of the partially conserved axial vector current theory (PCAC). The role of lepton mass effects in suppressing production of positively charged pions is…
The leading-particle effect and the factorization property of the scattering amplitude in the impact parameter space are used to study semiclassical production of pions in the central region. The mechanism is related to the isospin-uniform…
We study the neutral pion photoproduction at near-threshold energies in fully covariant chiral perturbation theory up to O(p^3). When including only nucleonic virtual states in the model, the convergence is too slow. Therefore we test the…
The article begins with a description of chiral symmetry and its application to neutrino induced reactions. For small $Q^2$ (forward direction) the process is dominated by the amplitute with helicity zero where the pion pole disappears when…
We study production of photons via the non-equilibrium relaxation of a Disoriented Chiral Condensate with the chiral order parameter having a large initial amplitude along the \pi^0 direction. Assuming the validity of the low energy…
We investigate pion photoproduction off the proton in a manifestly gauge-invariant chiral unitary extension of chiral perturbation theory. In a first step, we consider meson-baryon scattering taking into account all next-to-leading order…
Neutral current single pion production induced by neutrinos and antineutrinos on nucleon targets has been investigated in manifestly relativistic baryon chiral perturbation theory with explicit $\Delta(1232)$ degrees of freedom up to…
We give an overview of the physics motivation and evolution of the neutral pion photoproduction measurements in the threshold region conducted in the A2 collaboration at MAMI. The latest two experiments have been performed with the almost…
