Viability of carbon-based life as a function of the light quark mass
Evgeny Epelbaum, Hermann Krebs, Timo A. Lähde +2
The Hoyle state plays a crucial role in the helium burning of stars that have reached the red giant stage. The close proximity of this state to the triple-alpha threshold is needed…
New insights into the spin structure of the nucleon
V. Bernard, E. Epelbaum, H. Krebs +1
We analyze the low-energy spin structure of the nucleon in a covariant effective field theory with explicit spin-3/2 degrees of freedom to third order in the small scale expansion.…
Structure and rotations of the Hoyle state
Evgeny Epelbaum, Hermann Krebs, Timo Lähde +2
The excited state of the 12C nucleus known as the "Hoyle state" constitutes one of the most interesting, difficult and timely challenges in nuclear physics, as it plays a key role…
Chiral three-nucleon force at N^4LO I: Longest-range contributions
Hermann Krebs, Ashot Gasparyan, Evgeny Epelbaum
We derive the sub-subleading two-pion exchange contributions to the three-nucleon force which appear at next-to-next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order in chiral effective field theo…
Pion production in nucleon-nucleon collisions in chiral effective field theory: next-to-next-to-leading order contributions
A. A. Filin, V. Baru, E. Epelbaum +4
A complete calculation of the pion-nucleon loops that contribute to the transition operator for up-to-and-including next-to-next-to-leading order (NLO) in chiral ef…
