With the use of pionless effective field theory including dibaryon fields, we study the $gamma d to vec{n} p$ reaction for the laboratory photon energy $E_gamma^{lab}$ ranging from threshold to 30 MeV. Our main goal is to calculate the neutron polarization $P_{y}$ defined as $P_{y} = (sigma_+ - sigma_-)/(sigma_+ + sigma_-)$, where $sigma_+$ and $sigma_-$ are the differential cross sections for the spin-up and spin-down neutrons, respectively, along the axis perpendicular to the reaction plane. We also calculate the total cross section as well as the differential cross section $sigma(theta)$, where $theta$ is the colatitude angle. Although the results for the total and differential cross sections are found to agree reasonably well with the data, the results for $P_{y}$ show significant discrepancy with the experiment. We comment on this discrepancy.

Nuclear parity violation is studied with polarized neutrons in the photodisintegration of the deuteron at low energies. A pionless effective field theory with di-baryon fields is used for the investigation. Hadronic weak interactions are treated by parity-violating di-baryon-nucleon-nucleon vertices, which have undetermined coupling contants. A parity-violating asymmetry in the process is calculated for the incident photon energy up to 30 MeV. If experimental data for the parity-violating asymmetry become available in the future, we will be able to determine the unknown coupling contants in the parity-violating vertices.
Spin polarization observables of the deuteron photodisintegration at low energies are studied in a pionless effective field theory up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO). The total and differential cross sections, induced neutron polarization $P_{y}$, and tensor analyzing powers $T_{20}$ and $T_{22}$ of the process are calculated at photon energies from the breakup threshold to 20~MeV. We find that the NNLO corrections in the cross sections and $P_{y}$ converge well whereas they turn out to be important contributions in $T_{20}$ and $T_{22}$. We discuss the discrepancy between theory and experiment in $P_{y}$ still persisting as well as an implication of our result to the first measurement of $T_{20}$ at low energies in the HIGS facility.
We consider a pionless effective theory with dibaryon fields for the description of the weak process involving two nucleons. We construct leading order Lagrangians that contain nucleon-dibaryon weak coupling constants. We calculate the physical observable in the photodisintegration of the deuteron at threshold and obtain the result in terms of the nucleon-dibaryon weak coupling constants. Relation to existing calculations is discussed.
We consider the two-nucleon weak interaction with a pionless effective field theory. Dibaryon fields are introduced to facilitate calculations and ensure precision in the initial and final state propagators. Weak interactions are accounted for with the parity-violating dibaryon-nucleon-nucleon vertices, which contain unknown weak dibaryon-nucleon-nucleon coupling constants. We apply the model to the calculation of a parity-violating observable in the neutron-proton capture at threshold. Result is obtained up to the linear order in the unknown dibaryon-nucleon-nucleon coupling constants. We compare our result to the one obtained from a hybrid calculation, and discuss the extension to weak interactions in the few-body systems.
We study breakup of the deuteron induced by neutrinos in the neutral $ u dto u np$, $bar{ u} dto bar{ u} np$ and the charged $bar{ u} dto e^+ n n$, $ u dto e^- pp$ processes. Pionless effective field theory with dibaryon fields is used to calculate the total cross sections for neutrino energies $E_ u$ from threshold to 20 MeV. Amplitudes are expanded up to next-to-leading order, and the partial wave is truncated at $P$-waves. The Coulomb interaction between two protons is included nonperturbatively in the reaction amplitudes, and an analytic expression of the amplitudes is obtained. The contribution of the next-to-leading order to the total cross section is in the range of 5.2$-$9.9% in magnitude, and that of the $P$-wave is 2.4$-$2.8% at $E_ u = 20$ MeV. Uncertainty arising from an axial isovector low-energy constant is estimated to be on the order of 1%.
