Summary

• EFT (power counting)+ab initio works as expected at LO

• LO need s-wave scattering length, p-wave ANCs, and binding momentum

• The p-wave is a coupled-channel problem

• For Be7 capture, improving s-wave measurement is important for extrapolating data to stellar energies.

Outlook: NLO

Outlook: NLO

• Need to fix higher order couplings, i.e., need more “observables”. • Extract from ab initio calculations? • Change the boundary conditions? • Change the background fields?

Outlook: NLO

• Need to fix higher order couplings, i.e., need more “observables”. • Extract from ab initio calculations? • Change the boundary conditions? • Change the background fields? • Another approach by using data?

Other works

• Neutrino-nucleus interactions (GeV): neutral-current induced photon (motivated by MiniBooNE low energy excess), pion productions, nuclear effects [with Brian Serot]

• Jet quenching in heavy ion collisions: initial state fluctuation, different phenomenological jet energy loss models, possible near-Tc enhancement [with Jinfeng Liao]

• Two-loop contributions: nuclear matter, neutron matter, finite temperature [With Madappa Prakash]
