Nuclear Physics and Lattice QCD
Martin J. Savage
Lattice QCD is progressing toward being able to impact our understanding of nuclei and nuclear processes. I discuss areas of nuclear physics that are becoming possible to explore w…

A. Bulgac, E. M. Henley, G. A. Miller +2
This document is a summary of the physics research carried out by the Nuclear Theory Group at the University of Washington during the last twelve-month period, 1999-2000.
Effective Field Theory in Nuclear Physics
Martin J. Savage
I review recent developments in the application of effective field theory to nuclear physics. Emphasis is placed on precision two-body calculations and efforts to formulate the nuc…
K_L -> pi pi e e in Chiral Perturbation Theory
Martin J. Savage
The rare decay K_L -> pi pi e e that has recently been observed by KTeV is analyzed in chiral perturbation theory at the one-loop level.
The Two-Nucleon Sector with Effective Field Theory
Martin J. Savage
I present the results obtained for several observables in the two-nucleon sector using effective field theory with KSW power-counting and dimensional regularization. In addition to…
What Effective Field Theory May Contribute to the Blast Program
Martin J. Savage
Recent progress in using effective field theory to describe two nucleon systems is reviewed.
