abstract

We compare the subtractive renormalization and the Wilsonian renormalization group approaches in the context of an effective field theory for the two-nucleon system. Based on an exactly solvable model of contact interactions, we observe that the standard Wilsonian renormalization group approach with a single cutoff parameter does not cover the whole space spanned by the renormalization scale parameters of the subtractive formalism. In particular, renormalization schemes corresponding to Weinberg's power counting in the case of an unnaturally large scattering length are beyond the region covered by the Wilsonian renormalization group approach. In the framework of pionless effective field theory, also extended by the inclusion of a long-range interaction of separable type, we demonstrate that Weinberg's power counting scheme is consistent in the sense that it leads to a systematic order-by-order expansion of the scattering amplitude.

Bootstrapping Two-Nucleon Effective Field Theories

nucl-th · 2026-05-21 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Bootstrap consistency checks show that the NLO chiral EFT potential for the 1S0 two-nucleon wave remains valid over a significantly wider energy range than the LO version when compared to Granada phase shifts.

Scrutiny of the new class of three-nucleon forces

nucl-th · 2025-12-16 · conditional · novelty 3.0

After removing renormalization-scheme-dependent short-distance parts, the scrutinized three-nucleon forces yield small contributions to neutron and symmetric nuclear matter equations of state, aligning with standard chiral EFT expectations.
