Potential problems with interpolating fields
Michael C. Birse
A potential can have features that do not reflect the dynamics of the system it describes but rather arise from the choice of interpolating fields used to define it. This is illust…

Functional renormalisation group for few-nucleon systems: SU(4) symmetry and its breaking
Michael C. Birse, Boris Krippa, Niels R. Walet
We apply the functional renormalisation group to few-nucleon systems. Our starting point is a local effective action that includes three- and four-nucleon interactions, expressed i…

Proton polarisability contribution to the Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen at fourth order in chiral perturbation theory
Michael C. Birse, Judith A. McGovern
We calculate the amplitude T_1 for forward doubly-virtual Compton scattering in heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory, to fourth order in the chiral expansion and with the leadin…
