abstract

Weinberg's dimensional power counting for nuclei is reprised in this primer. The role of QCD and chiral symmetry in constructing effective Lagrangians is discussed. The two-scale hypothesis of Manohar and Georgi is combined with power counting in amplitudes to shed light on the scales of nuclear kinetic and potential energies, the size of strong-interaction coupling constants, the size of meson-exchange currents, and the relative sizes of $N$-nucleon forces. Numerous examples are worked out and compared to conventional nuclear models.

  1. From bare two-nucleon interaction to nuclear matter and finite nuclei in a relativistic framework

    nucl-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A leading-order relativistic chiral two-nucleon force, with four constants fit to scattering data, describes nuclear matter saturation and medium-mass nuclei binding energies and radii without three-nucleon forces.

  2. Perturbative calculations of light nuclei up to N$^3$LO in chiral effective field theory

    nucl-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Perturbative N3LO calculations in chiral EFT with RG-guided power counting yield robust predictions for light nuclei energies when calibrated on the tritium binding energy.
