Venue: Science Hall 615B
We are pleased to announce a lecture series on Chiral Effective Theory, a powerful framework for describing low-energy strong interactions in nuclear and particle physics. The course will cover the fundamentals of chiral symmetry and its spontaneous breaking, the construction of effective Lagrangians, and the systematic organization of interactions via power counting. In addition to foundational topics, the lecture will highlight recent research developments such as high-precision calculations of nuclear forces, advances in few-body systems, and applications to dense matter and neutron stars. This lecture is ideal for graduate students and researchers interested in the theoretical foundations of low-energy QCD and its modern applications in nuclear structure and astrophysics.
