Chiral Dynamics 2006 Proceedings Of The 5th International Workshop On Chiral Dynamics Theory And Experiment

Chiral Dynamics 2006 is the 5th International Workshop which examines the implications and the development of an approximate low-energy solution to the QCD Lagrangian based upon Chiral Symmetry. Advances in theory and experiment are presented in 20 plenary session papers along with more than one-hundred papers, including summaries, from the three working groups. Sample Chapter(s). Part 1.1: Opening Remarks: Experimental Tests of Chiral Symmetry Breaking (311 KB). Contents: Some Recent Developments in Chiral Perturbation Theory (U-G Meiner); Recent Results from HAPPEX (R Michaels); Kaon Physics: Recent Experimental Progress (M Moulson); Recent KTeV Results on Radiative Kaon Decays (M C Ronquest); Partially Quenched CHPT Results to Two Loops (J Bijnens); Finite Volume Effects: Lattice Meets CHPT (G Schierholz); Quark Mass Dependence of LECs in the Two-Flavour Sector (M Schmid); Leading Chiral Logarithms from Unitarity, Analyticity and the Roy Equations (A Fuhrer); Power Counting in Nuclear Chiral Effective Field Theory (U van Kolck); The Challenge of Calculating Baryon-Baryon Scattering from Lattice QCD (S R Beane); Few-Body Studies at KVI (J G Messchendorp); Compton Scattering on HE-3 (D Choudhury); Lattice Discretization Errors in Chiral Effective Field Theories (B C Tiburzi); Uncertainty Bands for Chiral Extrapolations (B U Musch); and other papers. Readership: Graduate students and academics in nuclear physics.
