A light front field theory treatment of a chiral lagrangian is applied to pion-nucleon and nucleon-nucleon scattering.

We discuss the target and beam normal spin asymmetries in elastic electron-nucleon scattering which depend on the imaginary part of two-photon exchange processes between electron and nucleon. In particular, we estimate these transverse spin asymmetries for beam energies below 2 GeV, where the twophoton exchange process is dominated from the resonance contribution to the doubly virtual Compton s...

We report on a microscopic calculation of n−H and p−He scattering employing the Argonne v18 and v ′ 8 nucleon-nucleon potentials with and without additional three-nucleon force. An Rmatrix analysis of the p−He and n−H scattering data is presented. Comparisons are made for the phase shifts and a selection of measurements in both scattering systems. Differences between our calculation and the R-m...

The behavior of the nuclear matter response in the region of large momentum transfer, in which plane wave impulse approximation predicts the onset of y-scaling, is discussed. The theoretical analysis shows that scaling violations produced by final state interactions are driven by the momentum dependence of the nucleon-nucleon scattering cross section. Their study may provide valuable informatio...

I discuss the latest progress in calculating baryon-baryon interactions with lattice QCD. The latest results from the NPLQCD collaboration for nucleon-nucleon scattering along with preliminary calculations of hyperon-nucleon scattering are presented.

Three-nucleon forces have been considered to be one possibility to resolve the well known discrepancy between experimental values and theoretical calculations of the nucleon analyzing power in low energy nucleondeuteron scattering. In this paper, we investigate possible effects of twopion exchange three-nucleon forces on the analyzing power and the differential cross section. We found that the ...

A review is given of the very recent developments in the fields of real and virtual Compton scattering off the nucleon. Both real and virtual Compton scattering reactions are discussed at low outgoing photon energy where one accesses polarizabilities of the nucleon. The real Compton scattering at large momentum transfer is discussed which is asymptotically a tool to obtain information on the va...

The deuteron-proton elastic scattering is studied in the multiple scattering expansion formalism. The contributions of the one-nucleon-exchange, singleand double scattering are taken into account. The Love and Franey parameterization of the nucleon-nucleon t-matrix is used, that gives an opportunity to include the off-energy-shell effects into calculations. Differential cross sections are consi...
