Two-Pion Exchange Contributions to the Nucleon-Nucleon Interaction from the Roper Resonance

Yang Xiao, Li-Sheng Geng, U. van Kolck

We derive the long-range components of the nucleon-nucleon (NN) two-pion-exchange potential with an intermediate Roper resonance. Leading-order interactions in heavy-baryon chiral…

The Three-Body Limit Cycle: Universal Form for General Regulators

Langxuan Chen, Feng Wu, Xincheng Lin +3

The Efimov effect, a remarkable realization of discrete scale invariance, emerges in the three-body problem with short-range interactions and is understood as a renormalization gro…

A renormalizable theory for not-so-light nuclei

L. Contessi, M. Schäfer, A. Gnech +2

We present an improved action for Pionless Effective Field Theory (EFT). Previous formulations of renormalizable nuclear EFTs have encountered instabilities in systems with more th…

Weinberg's Compositeness

U. van Kolck

Nearly 60 years ago Weinberg suggested a criterion for particle "compositeness", which has acquired new life with the discovery of new, exotic hadrons. His idea resonates with mode…

Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay: A Roadmap for Matching Theory to Experiment

Vincenzo Cirigliano, Zohreh Davoudi, Wouter Dekens +16

The observation of neutrino oscillations and hence non-zero neutrino masses provided a milestone in the search for physics beyond the Standard Model. But even though we now know th…
