What’s wrong with the hep ? • 1. Pseudo-orthogonality : • |4He' | = |S4:most symmetric • |3He + p' | = | S31:next-to-most symmetric • S4 | gA ii i | S31=0. : (Gamow-Teller) • h1B-LOi is difficult to evaluate : • We need realistic (not schematic) wave functions. • h1B-LOi is small : h1B-LOi»hMEC (N3LO)i • Meson-exchange current (MEC) plays an essential role. • 2. MEC is highly model-dependent, hsoft 1-exchangei =0(Ã a generic feature of GT operator).
MEC in EFT (Heavy-baryon ChPT) • MEC= N2LO+N3LO + (N2LO=0 for GT), • N3LO= (hard 1-exchange) + (r) ()ij • Long-range part (hard 1-exchange) is well-known. • The value of is not fixed by symmetry, and should be determined either by QCD or by other experiments. • Once the value of is fixed, no other uncertainty left.
Nuclear matrix element in EFT M=hfEFT| OEFT |iEFTi • |EFTi is yet to come ! • Schematic wave functions are not good. • A few accurate phenomenological wave functions available. • How we can go further ?
We are thus forced to look at the possibility to study M=hfphen| OEFT | ipheni • Can it work ?
How we do with ? • Model-dependence cut-off dependence: M()=hf | O() | ii = Mnon-CT () + () hf | (r) | ii . • Model-dependence resides in short-range, which we explore in terms of . • Consider another known process which depends on : M0exp =M0non-CT () + () h0f | (r) | 0ii . This step determines the value of for a given and a. • have strong dependence on , but independent of the details (quantum numbers, A, Z, ...) of the process.
RG-invariance • M()= hf | O() | ii = 0 ? • O(’) = O() + c0(r) + c2r2(r) + , thus equivalent (up to N3LO) to replace ()!(’) = () + c0, which has no effect in matrix elements. We will check the RG-inv. numerically.
Model-invariance ? • M(a)= hf(a) | O | i(a)i : a-independent ? • (a: model-index) • Vlow-k: if we limit our model space to k < , then all the accurate phenomenological potentials are equivalent. Hlow-k = U(a)y H(a) U(a) is a-independent, |(a)i = U(a) |low-ki M(a)= hlow-k | Uy(a)O U(a)| low-ki = hlow-k | O(a) | low-ki We also expect O(a) = Olow-k() + d0(r) + d2r2(r) + , since the finite range-part is dictated by the chiral symmetry.

Heavy-baryon Chiral Perturbation Theory 1. Pertinent degrees of freedom: pions and nucleons. Others are integrated out. Their effects appear as higher order operators of p’s and N’s. 2. Expansion parameter = Q/LcQ : typical momentum scaleand/orm,Lc : mNand/or4p fp3. Weinberg’s power counting rule for irreducible diagrams.
CT contributions to the currents at N3LO • g4S : isoscalar M1 • d, spin observables(np! d+), (3He)+(3H), hen,... • g4V : isovector M1 • (np! d+), (3He)-(3H), hen,... • pp, hep, tritium-b decay (TBD), m-d capture, n-d scattering, … .
Isoscalar M1 (M1S) inn+p! d+ • Due to pseudo-orthogonality, 1B-LO is highly suppressed, NLO=N2LO=0. • At N3LO, there appear CT (g4S ) and 1-exchange. • The value of g4S is determined from the exp. value of d. • Aspects of the actual calculation: • Argonne v18 wave functions. • Hardcore regularization, (3)(r) !(r-rC)/(4 r2), rC» 1/ . • Up to N3LO and up to N4LO. • No experimerimetal data yet: it can be in principle measured via the spin observables, but requires ultra-high polarizations.

The hen (3He + n 4He + ) process • Accurate experimental data are available for the hen • The hen process has much in common with hep : • The leading order 1B contribution is strongly suppressed due to pseudo-orthogonality. • A cancellation mechanism between 1B and 2B occurs. • Trivial point: both are 4-body processes that involve 3He + N !4He. Q: Can we test our hep prediction by applying the same method to the hen process ? Y.-H. Song & TSP, nucl-th/0311055

Discussions • Developed an EFT method which enables us to do a systematic and consistent EFT calculation on top of accurate but phenomenological wave functions. • Confirmed the RG-invariance numerically to a very satisfactory degree. • Also demonstrated the convergence of chiral expansion in the isoscalar M1 channel of the np! d, check for other proceeses are future works. • For all the cases we have studied, our method works quite well • extremely high accuracy in 2-body processes, • the first accurate & reliable theory prediction for the hep and hen, • -d (S. Ando etal., PLB555(’03)49), -d (S.Nakamura etal, NPA707 (’02)561,NPA721(’03)549)
Compared to Hybrid model approaches: (Chemtob-Rho type of current-algebra based phenomenological current operators + phen. wave functions) • systematic & consistent expansion scheme • full control on the short-range physics • ,,, • Compared to Pure EFT approaches: • more flexible and more powerful • ... ! so, we are calling our method as More-effective effective field theory (MEEFT)
