The Problem of Renormalization of Chiral Nuclear Forces

Ever since quantum field theory was first applied to the derivation of nuclear forces in the mid-twentieth century, the renormalization of pion exchange with realistic couplings has presented a challenge. The implementation of effective field theories (EFTs) in the 1990s promised a solution to this...
