Symmetries of QCD and their relevance for low-energy nuclear physics
Matthias R. Schindler
QCD, the theory of the strong interactions, is formulated in terms of quarks and gluons, while low-energy nuclear physics deals with hadrons such as protons, neutrons, and pions. S…

Inferring the breakdown scales of the chiral expansions for and
Andreas Ekström, Daniel R. Phillips, Lucas Platter +1
We apply Bayesian inference to the order-by-order chiral perturbation theory (PT) expansions for the axial-vector coupling constant and the nucleon mass m_N, and thereby i…

The role of intermediate states in nucleon-nucleon scattering in the large- and unitary limits, and and scattering
Thomas R. Richardson, Matthias R. Schindler, Roxanne P. Springer
We explore potential explanations for why using large- ( is the number of colors) scaling to determine the relative size of few-nucleon low-energy operators agrees with e…
