The piNN system - recent progress
arXiv:nucl-th/0612092
Abstract
Recent progress towards an understanding of the piNN system within chiral perturbation theory is reported. The focus lies on an effective field theory calculation and its comparison to phenomenological calculations for the reaction NN->d pi. In addition, the resulting absorptive and dispersive corrections to the pi-d scattering length are discussed briefly.
