Baryon scattering amplitudes from lattice QCD — •John Bulava — Ruhr Universtität Bochum

Lattice QCD computations of baryon scattering amplitudes are continually improving. As a first-principles Monte Carlo approach, such simulations elucidate the quark mass dependence of baryon interactions, providing useful input to chiral effective theories. I will review computations of the nucleon-nucleon interaction at unphysically heavy quark masses, for which agreement has been recently attained between several independent groups. I will then present first results for light quark masses, which make contact to chiral effective theories for the first time.
