Nuclear effective field theory: status and perspectives

HW Hammer, S König, U Van Kolck - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2020 - APS
The nuclear-physics landscape has been redesigned as a sequence of effective field
theories (EFTs) connected to the standard model through symmetries and lattice simulations …

Effective field theory description of halo nuclei

HW Hammer, C Ji, DR Phillips - Journal of Physics G: Nuclear …, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
Nuclear halos emerge as new degrees of freedom near the neutron and proton driplines.
They consist of a core and one or a few nucleons which spend most of their time in the …

Renormalized approach to neutrinoless double- decay

V Cirigliano, W Dekens, J de Vries, ML Graesser… - Physical Review C, 2019 - APS
The process at the heart of neutrinoless double-β decay, nn→ ppe− e− induced by a light
Majorana neutrino, is investigated in pionless and chiral effective field theory. We show in …

Towards grounding nuclear physics in QCD

C Drischler, W Haxton, K McElvain, E Mereghetti… - Progress in Particle and …, 2021 - Elsevier
Exascale computing could soon enable a predictive theory of nuclear structure and
reactions rooted in the Standard Model, with quantifiable and systematically improvable …

Ground-state properties of 4He and 16O extrapolated from lattice QCD with pionless EFT

L Contessi, A Lovato, F Pederiva, A Roggero… - Physics Letters B, 2017 - Elsevier
We extend the prediction range of Pionless Effective Field Theory with an analysis of the
ground state of 16 O in leading order. To renormalize the theory, we use as input both …

Nuclear physics around the unitarity limit

S König, HW Grießhammer, HW Hammer, U van Kolck - Physical review letters, 2017 - APS
We argue that many features of the structure of nuclei emerge from a strictly perturbative
expansion around the unitarity limit, where the two-nucleon S waves have bound states at …

Pion-less effective field theory for atomic nuclei and lattice nuclei

A Bansal, S Binder, A Ekström, G Hagen, GR Jansen… - Physical Review C, 2018 - APS
We compute the medium-mass nuclei O 16 and Ca 40 using pion-less effective field theory
(EFT) at next-to-leading order (NLO). The low-energy coefficients of the EFT Hamiltonian are …

Role of three-body dynamics in nucleon-deuteron correlation functions

M Viviani, S König, A Kievsky, LE Marcucci, B Singh… - Physical Review C, 2023 - APS
Correlation functions of hadrons can be accessed in high-energy collisions of atomic nuclei,
revealing information about the underlying interaction. This work complements experimental …

Naturalness in nuclear effective field theories

U van Kolck - The European Physical Journal A, 2020 - Springer
Nuclear effective field theories (EFTs) have been developed over the last quarter-century
with considerable impact on the description of light and even medium-mass nuclei. At the …
