We study the production amplitude for the reaction $NN\to NN\pi$ up to next-to-leading order in chiral perturbation theory. We show that the irreducible chiral loops at this order exactly cancel those terms that arise from the off-shell…

We investigate the reaction pn -> dpipi in the framework of Chiral Perturbation Theory. For the first time a complete calculation of the leading order contributions is presented. We identify various diagrams that are of equal importance as…

It is shown that the low energy coefficients of the next-to-leading order (NLO) chiral perturbation theory needed to determine $\Delta I=1/2$, $K\to\pi\pi$ decay amplitudes can be fixed by calculating $K\pi\to\pi$ amplitudes on lattice.…

A complete calculation of the pion-nucleon loops that contribute to the transition operator for $NN\to NN\pi$ up-to-and-including next-to-next-to-leading order (N$^2$LO) in chiral effective field theory near threshold is presented. The…

Based on a counting scheme that explicitly takes into account the large momentum sqrt(M m_pi) characteristic for pion production in nucleon-nucleon collisions we calculate all diagrams for the reaction NN --> NN pi at threshold up to…

We discuss the results of a systematic calculation of the next-to-next-to-leading order amplitude for the pp -> pp\pi^0 S-wave production at the threshold in heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory. We find six new diagrams, two of which…

Based on a counting scheme for the application of chiral perturbation theory to pion production in NN collisions p-wave production is studied. It is demonstrated that, contrary to the s-wave production where loops enter at too low an order…

The near-threshold n p -> d pi0 cross section is calculated in chiral perturbation theory to next-to-leading order in the expansion parameter sqrt{M m_pi}/Lambda_chi. At this order irreducible pion loops contribute to the relevant…

We investigate p-wave pion production in nucleon-nucleon collisions up to next-to-next-to-leading order in chiral effective field theory. In particular, we show that it is possible to describe simultaneously the p-wave amplitudes in the…

In this review we present the recent advances for calculations of the reactions $NN\to NN\pi$ using chiral effective field theory. Discussed are the next-to-next-to leading order loop contributions with nucleon and Delta-isobar for near…

In recent years a two-scale expansion was established to study reactions of the type N N -> N N pi within chiral perturbation theory. Then the diagrams of some subclasses that are invariant under the choice of the pion field no longer…

The total cross section for the pp --> pp $\pi^0$ reaction at energies close to threshold is calculated within the frame of a chiral perturbation theory. The tree and one loop diagrams up to chiral order D=2 contributions are taken into…

Power-counting arguments are used to organize the interactions contributing to the N N -> d pi, p n pi reactions near threshold. We estimate the contributions from the three formally leading mechanisms: the Weinberg-Tomozawa (WT) term, the…

We study the nonperturbative renormalization of the nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction at next-to-leading order (NLO) and next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) of chiral effective field theory. A systematic variation of the cutoff parameter is…

We use power-counting arguments as an organizing principle to apply chiral perturbation theory, including an explicit $\Delta$, to the $p p \rightarrow p p \pi^0$ reaction near threshold. There are two lowest-order leading mechanisms…

I describe recent progress towards a theory of the NN force which captures the consequences of QCD's chiral symmetry and the pattern of its breaking, and is formulated as an expansion in a ratio of low and high mass scales, M_{lo}/M_{hi}.…

We survey the recent developments in the reaction $NN \to NN\pi$ in effective field theory. We show that the proper construction of the production operator needs a careful separation of irreducible pieces from reducible ones. The result of…

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…

We present a systematic analysis of next-to-next-to-leading-order diagrams that contribute to the $pp \to pp\pi^0$ production at threshold. Analytic expressions are given for the effective transition operators, and the relative importance…

We obtain relations between partial-wave amplitudes for pi-N-->pi-N and pi-N-->pi-Delta directly from large N_c QCD. While linear relations among certain amplitudes holding at leading order (LO) in 1/N_c were derived in the context of…
