Predictiveness of Effective Field Theory in Nuclear Physics
Abstract
Description
We discuss the role effective field theory plays in making predictions in nuclear physics in an approach that combines both the high sophistication of the standard nuclear many-body approach and the power of systematic higher chiral-order account in chiral perturbation theory. The main idea of this approach is illustrated with a selected number of cases involving few-body systems, the measurement of some of which poses an experimental challenge and will be of value to solar neutrino studies.
