Violations of discrete space-time symmetries in chiral effective field theory

Abstract

We review recent progress in the theoretical description of the violation of discrete space-time symmetries in hadronic and nuclear systems. We focus on parity-violating and time-reversal-conserving interactions which are induced by the Standard Model weak interaction, and on parity- and time-reversal-violating interactions which can be caused by a nonzero QCD theta term or by beyond-the-Standard Model physics. We discuss the origins of such interactions and review the development of the chiral effective field theory extension that includes discrete symmetry violations. We discuss the construction of symmetry-violating chiral Lagrangians and nucleon-nucleon potentials and their applications in few-body systems.
