Effective Field Theory
Attempts to apply effective field theory (EFT) methods to nonrelativistic nucleon-nucleon (N N) scattering have raised questions about the nature and limitations of an EFT expansion when used nonperturbatively. We discuss the characteristics of a meaningful EFT analysis and compare them with traditional approaches to N N scattering. A key feature of an EFT treatment is a systematic expansion in...
متن کاملEffective β-functions for Effective Field Theory
We consider the problem of determining the beta-functions for any reduced effective field theory. Even though not all the Green’s functions of a reduced effective field theory are renormalizable, unlike the full effective field theory, certain effective beta-functions for the reduced set of couplings may be calculated without having to introduce vertices in the Feynman rules for redundant opera...
متن کاملAngular truncation errors in integrating nephelometry
Ideal integrating nephelometers integrate light scattered by particles over all directions. However, real nephelometers truncate light scattered in near-forward and near-backward directions below a certain truncation angle ~typically 7°!. This results in truncation errors, with the forward truncation error becoming important for large particles. Truncation errors are commonly calculated using M...
متن کاملEffective Field Theory Dimensional Regularization
A Lorentz-covariant regularization scheme for effective field theories with an arbitrary number of propagating heavy and light particles is given. This regularization scheme leaves the low-energy analytic structure of Greens functions intact and preserves all the symmetries of the underlying Lagrangian. The power divergences of regularized loop integrals are controlled by the low-energy kinemat...
