Quantum Simulating Nature's Fundamental Fields
Christian W. Bauer, Zohreh Davoudi, Natalie Klco +1
Simulating key static and dynamic properties of matter -- from creation in the Big Bang to evolution into sub-atomic and astrophysical environments -- arising from the underlying f…
Nuclear σ-terms and Scalar-Isoscalar WIMP-Nucleus Interactions from Lattice QCD
S. R. Beane, S. D. Cohen, W. Detmold +2
It has been argued that the leading scalar-isoscalar WIMP-nucleus interactions receive parametrically enhanced contributions in the context of nuclear effective field theories. The…
A Conjecture about Hadrons
Silas R. Beane, Martin J. Savage
We conjecture that in the chiral limit of QCD the spectrum of hadrons is comprised of decoupled, reducible chiral multiplets. A simple rule is developed which identifies the chiral…
Variation of Fundamental Couplings and Nuclear Forces
Silas R. Beane, Martin J. Savage
The dependence of the nuclear force on standard model parameters plays an important role in bounding time and space variations of fundamental couplings over cosmological time scale…
Heavy-Meson Observables at One-Loop in Partially Quenched Chiral Perturbation Theory
Martin J. Savage
I present one-loop level calculations of the Isgur-Wise functions for B -> D^{(*)} + e + nu, of the matrix elements of isovector twist-2 operators in B and D mesons, and the matrix…
Meson Masses in High Density QCD
Silas R. Beane, Paulo F. Bedaque, Martin J. Savage
The low-energy effective theories for the two- and three-flavor color-superconductors arising in the high density limit of QCD are discussed. Using an effective field theory to des…
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.
Hadronic and Electromagnetic Interactions of Quarkonia
Jiunn-Wei Chen, Martin J. Savage
We examine the hadronic interactions of quarkonia, focusing on the decays psi(2s)->psi pi pi and upsilon(2s)-> upsilon pi pi. The leading gluonic operators in the multipole expansi…
Power Counting in Dimensionally Regularized NRQCD
Michael Luke, Martin J. Savage
We present a scheme for calculating in NRQCD with consistent power counting in the heavy quark velocity v. As an example, we perform the systematic matching of an external current…
Non-1/m_b^n Power Suppressed Contributions to Inclusive b->s l+ l- Decays
Jiunn-Wei Chen, Gautam Rupak, Martin J. Savage
We compute non-perturbative contributions to b->s l+ l- that are not explicitly suppressed by powers of the b-quark mass. They are proportional to lambda_2 and arise from an interf…
Analyticity, Shapes of Semileptonic Form Factors, and B to pi l nu
C. Glenn Boyd, Martin J. Savage
We give a pedagogical discussion of the physics underlying dispersion relation-derived parameterizations of form factors describing B -> pi l nu and B -> D l nu. Moments of the dis…
Heavy Baryon Mixing in Chiral Perturbation Theory
C. Glenn Boyd, Ming Lu, Martin J. Savage
We discuss the SU(3) and heavy quark spin-symmetry breaking mixing between the Xi_c and Xi'_c charmed baryons. Chromomagnetic hyperfine interactions are the leading source of spin-…
SU(3) Breaking in Neutral Current Axial Matrix Elements and the Spin Content of the Nucleon
Martin J. Savage, James Walden
We examine the effects of SU(3) breaking in the matrix elements of the flavour-diagonal axial currents between octet baryon states and find that SU(3) breaking may be substantial f…

Phenomenology of the Expansion in Inclusive and Meson Decays
Adam F. Falk, Michael Luke, Martin J. Savage
We apply a recent theoretical analysis of hadronic observables in inclusive semileptonic heavy hadron decays to the phenomenology of and mesons. Correlated bounds on the no…
The Radiative Charmed Baryon Decay
Ming Lu, Martin J. Savage, James Walden
V-spin symmetry ( symmetry) forbids the radiative decay in the SU(3) limit. The quark mass term breaks V-spin symmetry and…
The Spin-Flavor Dependence of Nuclear Forces from Large-N QCD
David B. Kaplan, Martin J. Savage
We show that nuclear interactions are SU(4) symmetric at leading order in chiral perturbation theory in the large-N limit of QCD. The nucleons and delta resonances form a 20-dimens…
