Pion double charge exchange within heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory to one loop
Oct, 1998Citations per year
Abstract:
One-loop corrections at the two-nucleon level to Pion Double Charge exchange (DCX) scattering off a nuclear target at threshold, are calculated within the framework of Heavy Baryon Chiral Perturbation Theory (HBChPT). An estimate for the (2-nucleon) 1-loop correction is obtained in the static limit and using an impulse approximation. We find a small (1.6%) increase relative to the leading order tree graphs.References(0)
