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 …

Entanglement suppression and emergent symmetries of strong interactions

SR Beane, DB Kaplan, N Klco, MJ Savage - Physical Review Letters, 2019 - APS
Entanglement suppression in the strong-interaction S matrix is shown to be correlated with
approximate spin-flavor symmetries that are observed in low-energy baryon interactions, the …

Large- analysis of two-nucleon neutrinoless double- decay and charge-independence-breaking contact terms

TR Richardson, MR Schindler, S Pastore, RP Springer - Physical Review C, 2021 - APS
The interpretation of experiments that search for neutrinoless double-β decay relies on input

Hidden spin-isospin exchange symmetry

D Lee, S Bogner, BA Brown, S Elhatisari… - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
The strong interactions among nucleons have an approximate spin-isospin exchange
symmetry that arises from the properties of quantum chromodynamics in the limit of many …

Toward a unified treatment of parity violation in low-energy nuclear processes

S Gardner, G Muralidhara - Physical Review C, 2023 - APS
We revisit the unified treatment of low-energy hadronic parity violation espoused by
Desplanques, Donoghue, and Holstein to the end of an ab initio treatment of parity violation …

Implications of Large-N c QCD for the NN Interaction

TR Richardson, MR Schindler… - Annual Review of …, 2023 - annualreviews.org
We present a method for ordering two-nucleon interactions based upon their scaling with the
number of QCD colors, N c, in the limit that N c becomes large. Available data in the two …

Large- constraints for elastic dark-matter–light-nucleus scattering in pionless effective field theory

TR Richardson, X Lin, ST Nguyen - Physical Review C, 2022 - APS
Recent proposals for the use of light nuclei as dark-matter direct detection targets
necessitate a strong theoretical understanding of the nuclear physics involved. We perform …

Large- analysis of magnetic and axial two-nucleon currents in pionless effective field theory

TR Richardson, MR Schindler - Physical Review C, 2020 - APS
We analyze magnetic and axial two-nucleon contact terms in a combined large-N c and
