Physics of Few-Nucleon Systems - Lattice Perspectives

Explore the physics of few-nucleon systems through lattice quantum chromodynamics perspectives in this special conference talk delivered at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into the theoretical framework for understanding nuclear physics at the fundamental level, examining how lattice QCD methods can be applied to study systems containing small numbers of nucleons. Learn about the computational approaches used to investigate nuclear binding, interactions, and structure from first principles using lattice field theory techniques. Discover how these methods bridge the gap between the underlying quark and gluon degrees of freedom described by QCD and the emergent nuclear phenomena observed in few-body systems. Gain insights into the challenges and recent advances in lattice calculations for nuclear physics, including discussions of systematic uncertainties, extrapolation procedures, and the connection to experimental observables. This presentation forms part of the School for Advanced Topics in Particle Physics focusing on QCD, Effective Field Theories, and Nuclear Physics, providing advanced theoretical perspectives for researchers working at the intersection of particle and nuclear physics.
