We study the scattering of a pseudoscalar meson off one ground state octet baryon in covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory (BChPT) up to the next-to-next-to-leading order. The inherent power counting breaking terms are removed within extended-on-mass-shell scheme. We perform the first combined study of the pion-nucleon and kaon-nucleon scattering data in covariant BChPT and show that it can provide a reasonable description of the experimental data. In addition, we find that it is possible to fit the experimental baryon masses and the pion-nucleon and kaon-nucleon scattering data simultaneously at this order, thus providing a consistent check on covariant BChPT. We compare the scattering lengths of all the pertinent channels with available experimental data and those of other approaches. In addition, we have studied the leading order contributions of the virtual decuplet and found that they can improve the description of the $pi N$ phase shifts near the $Delta(1232)$ peak, while they have negligible effects on the description of the $K N$ phase shifts.

We calculate the octet baryon magnetic moments in covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory with the extended-on-mass-shell renormalization scheme up to next-to-next-to-leading order. At this order, there are nine low-energy constants, which cannot be uniquely determined by the seven experimental data alone. We propose two strategies to circumvent this problem. First, we assume that chiral perturbation theory has a certain convergence rate and use this as one additional constraint to fix the low-energy constants by fitting to the experimental data. Second, we fit to lattice QCD simulations to determine the low-energy constants. We then compare the resulting predictions of the light and strange quark mass dependence of the octet baryon magnetic moments by the three mostly studied formulations of baryon chiral perturbation theory, namely, the extended-on-mass-shell, the infrared, and the heavy baryon approach. It is shown that once more precise lattice data become available, one will learn more about the convergence pattern of baryon chiral perturbation theory.
We present a systematic study of neutron-proton scattering in Nuclear Lattice Effective Field Theory (NLEFT), in terms of the computationally efficient radial Hamiltonian method. Our leading-order (LO) interaction consists of smeared, local contact t erms and static one-pion exchange. We show results for a fully non-perturbative analysis up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO), followed by a perturbative treatment of contributions beyond LO. The latter analysis anticipates practical Monte Carlo simulations of heavier nuclei. We explore how our results depend on the lattice spacing a, and estimate sources of uncertainty in the determination of the low-energy constants of the next-to-leading-order (NLO) two-nucleon force. We give results for lattice spacings ranging from a = 1.97 fm down to a = 0.98 fm, and discuss the effects of lattice artifacts on the scattering observables. At a = 0.98 fm, lattice artifacts appear small, and our NNLO results agree well with the Nijmegen partial-wave analysis for S-wave and P-wave channels. We expect the peripheral partial waves to be equally well described once the lattice momenta in the pion-nucleon coupling are taken to coincide with the continuum dispersion relation, and higher-order (N3LO) contributions are included. We stress that for center-of-mass momenta below 100 MeV, the physics of the two-nucleon system is independent of the lattice spacing.
We report an analysis of the octet baryon masses using the covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order with and without the virtual decuplet contributions. Particular attention is paid to the finite-volume corrections and the finite lattice spacing effects on the baryon masses. A reasonable description of all the publicly available $n_f=2+1$ lattice QCD data is achieved.Utilyzing the Feynman-Hellmann theorem, we determine the nucleon sigma terms as $sigma_{pi N}=55(1)(4)$ MeV and $sigma_{sN}=27(27)(4)$ MeV.
We report on a recent study of the ground-state octet baryon masses and sigma terms in covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory with the extended-on-mass-shell scheme up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order. To take into account lattice QCD ar tifacts, the finite-volume corrections and finite lattice spacing discretization effects are carefully examined. We performed a simultaneous fit of all the $n_f = 2+1$ lattice octet baryon masses and found that the various lattice simulations are consistent with each other. Although the finite lattice spacing discretization effects up to $mathcal{O}(a^2)$ can be safely ignored, but the finite volume corrections cannot even for configurations with $M_phi L>4$. As an application, we predicted the octet baryon sigma terms using the Feynman-Hellmann theorem. In particular, the pion- and strangeness-nucleon sigma terms are found to be $sigma_{pi N} = 55(1)(4)$ MeV and $sigma_{sN} = 27(27)(4)$ MeV, respectively.
We study ground-state energies and charge radii of closed-shell medium-mass nuclei based on novel chiral nucleon-nucleon (NN) and three-nucleon (3N) interactions, with a focus on exploring the connections between finite nuclei and nuclear matter. To this end, we perform in-medium similarity renormalization group (IM-SRG) calculations based on chiral interactions at next-to-leading order (NLO), N$^2$LO, and N$^3$LO, where the 3N interactions at N$^2$LO and N$^3$LO are fit to the empirical saturation point of nuclear matter and to the triton binding energy. Our results for energies and radii at N$^2$LO and N$^3$LO overlap within uncertainties, and the cutoff variation of the interactions is within the EFT uncertainty band. We find underbound ground-state energies, as expected from the comparison to the empirical saturation point. The radii are systematically too large, but the agreement with experiment is better. We further explore variations of the 3N couplings to test their sensitivity in nuclei. While nuclear matter at saturation density is quite sensitive to the 3N couplings, we find a considerably weaker dependence in medium-mass nuclei. In addition, we explore a consistent momentum-space SRG evolution of these NN and 3N interactions, exhibiting improved many-body convergence. For the SRG-evolved interactions, the sensitivity to the 3N couplings is found to be stronger in medium-mass nuclei.
