Nuclear forces from chiral EFT: the unfinished business

Ruprecht Machleidt
University of Idaho

In recent years, there has been substantial progress in the derivation
of nuclear forces from chiral effective field theory (EFT). Accurate 
two-nucleon forces have been constructed at 
next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N3LO) and applied (together with 
three-nucleon forces at N2LO) to nuclear few- and many-body 
systems---with a fair deal of success. This may suggest that the 80-year 
old nuclear force problem has finally been cracked. Not so! Some pretty 
basic issues are still unresolved. In my talk, I will focus on the two 
most pressing ones,
namely, subleading many-body forces and the proper renormalization of 
the two-nucleon potential.
