Nuclear Matter on a Lattice
H. -M. Muller, S. E. Koonin, R. Seki +1
We investigate nuclear matter on a cubic lattice. An exact thermal formalism is applied to nucleons with a Hamiltonian that accommodates on-site and next-neighbor parts of the cent…
New Three-Nucleon-Force Terms in the Three-Nucleon System
D. Hüber, J. L. Friar, A. Nogga +2
We include two new three-nucleon-force terms of pion-range - short-range form in our momentum-space calculations for the three-nucleon continuum. These two terms are expected by ch…
Charge-Independence Breaking in the Two-Pion-Exchange Nucleon-Nucleon Force
J. L. Friar, U. van Kolck
Charge-independence breaking due to the pion-mass difference in the (chiral) two-pion-exchange nucleon-nucleon force is investigated. A general argument based on symmetries is pres…
Effective Theory of the Triton
P. F. Bedaque, H. -W. Hammer, U. van Kolck
We apply the effective field theory approach to the three-nucleon system. In particular, we consider S=1/2 neutron-deuteron scattering and the triton. We show that in this channel…
Compton Scattering on the Deuteron in Baryon Chiral Perturbation Theory
S. R. Beane, M. Malheiro, D. R. Phillips +1
Compton scattering on the deuteron is studied in the framework of baryon chiral perturbation theory to third order in small momenta, for photon energies of order the pion mass. The…
The N N -> NN pi+ Reaction near Threshold in a Chiral Power Counting Approach
C. A. da Rocha, G. A. Miller, U. van Kolck
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 formal…
Effective Field Theory of Nuclear Forces
U. van Kolck
The application of the effective field theory (EFT) method to nuclear systems is reviewed. The roles of degrees of freedom, QCD symmetries, power counting, renormalization, and pot…
