R. Machleidt Theory of Nucl. Forces KITPC Beijing The circle of history is closing.

R. Machleidt Theory of Nucl. Forces KITPC Beijing This was just the history in a nutshell. The history was, of course, much richer. Let me show this for the last two decades. It is best to distinguish between phenomenological and “first principal” approaches.

R. Machleidt Theory of Nucl. Forces KITPC Beijing How does this compare to conventional meson theory?

Main differences Chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) is an expansion in terms of small momenta. Chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) is an expansion in terms of small momenta. Meson theory is an expansion in terms of ranges (masses). Meson theory is an expansion in terms of ranges (masses). R. Machleidt Theory of Nucl. Forces KITPC Beijing

Chiral EFT claims to be a theory, while “meson theory” is a model. Chiral EFT claims to be a theory, while “meson theory” is a model. Chiral EFT has a clear connection to QCD, while the QCD-connection of the meson model is more hand- woven. Chiral EFT has a clear connection to QCD, while the QCD-connection of the meson model is more hand- woven. In ChPT, there is an organizational scheme (“power counting”) that allows to estimate the size of the various contributions and the uncertainty at a given order (i.e., the size of the contributions we left out). In ChPT, there is an organizational scheme (“power counting”) that allows to estimate the size of the various contributions and the uncertainty at a given order (i.e., the size of the contributions we left out). Two- and many-body force contributions are generated on an equal footing in ChPT. Two- and many-body force contributions are generated on an equal footing in ChPT. R. Machleidt Theory of Nucl. Forces KITPC Beijing Question: When everything is so equivalent to conventional meson theory, why not continue to use conventional meson theory?

R. Machleidt Theory of Nucl. Forces KITPC Beijing But: Meson-models are superior at higher Energies. Green and red curves: Chiral NN pots. Black line: CD-Bonn

R. Machleidt Theory of Nucl. Forces KITPC Beijing So, chiral EFT wants to be a theory. How true is that?

R. Machleidt Theory of Nucl. Forces KITPC Beijing If EFT wants to be a theory, it better be renormalizable. The problem in all field theories are divergent loop integrals. The method to deal with them in field theories: 1. Regularize the integral (e.g. apply a “cutoff”) to make it finite. 2. Remove the cutoff dependence by Renormalization (“counter terms”).

R. Machleidt Theory of Nucl. Forces KITPC Beijing For calculating pi-pi and pi-N reactions no problem. However, the NN case is tougher, because it involves two kinds of (divergent) loop integrals.

R. Machleidt Theory of Nucl. Forces KITPC Beijing The first kind: “NN Potential”: “NN Potential”: irreducible diagrams calculated perturbatively up to a fixed order. Example: irreducible diagrams calculated perturbatively up to a fixed order. Example: Counter terms  perturbative renormalization (order by order)

Example: irreducible diagrams calculated perturbatively up to a fixed order. Example: Counter terms  perturbative renormalization (order by order) This is fine. No problems.

R. Machleidt Theory of Nucl. Forces KITPC Beijing The second kind: Application of the NN Pot. in the Schrodinger or Lippmann-Schwinger (LS) equation: non-perturbative summation of ladder diagrams (infinite sum): Application of the NN Pot. in the Schrodinger or Lippmann-Schwinger (LS) equation: non-perturbative summation of ladder diagrams (infinite sum): 33 In diagrams: +++ …

R. Machleidt Theory of Nucl. Forces KITPC Beijing Some Results from non-perturbative renormalization Infinite cutoff: no reasonable power counting scheme, no order-by-order improvement (Idaho group). Infinite cutoff only at LO, higher orders perturbatively (Valderrama; Gegelia): How to implement in nuclear structure calculations? Also: huge tensor force. Finite cutoff (below the hard scale): cutoff independence for the range MeV, substantial improvements from NLO to NNLO to N3LO (Idaho group).

R. Machleidt Theory of Nucl. Forces KITPC Beijing Note, however, that the real thing are DATA (not phase shifts), e.g., NN cross sections, etc. Therefore better: Look for cutoff independence in the description of the data. Notice, however, that there are many data (about 6000 NN Data below 350 MeV). Therefore, it makes no sense to look at single data sets (observables). Instead, one should calculate with N the number of NN data in a certain energy range.
