Hadronic parity violation: an analytic approach

Abstract

Using a recent reformulation of the analysis of nuclear parity-violation (PV) using the framework of effective field theory (EFT), we show how predictions for parity-violating observables in low-energy light hadronic systems can be understood in an analytic fashion. It is hoped that such an analytic approach may encourage additional experimental work as well as add to the understanding of such parity-violating phenomena, which is all too often obscured by its description in terms of numerical results obtained from complex two-body potential codes.
