Parity violation in low energy NN interactions
Date: Thursday, October 8th
Time: 4:00 pm
Place: 4274 Chamberlin
Speaker: Roxanne Springer, Duke University
Abstract: At low energies, parity violation in NN scattering
(including photons) is described by an effective field theory (EFT)
that includes only contact interactions. I will describe this EFT,
how it improves upon the standard (non-physical) description, how it
echoes the Danilov treatment, and how its predictions compare to
existing (presently under-constraining) measurements.
Host: Michael Ramsey-Musolf
