Explaining and predicting properties of nuclei starting from QCD is one of the most challenging problems in physics. There are several attempts to extract mass of nuclei in lattice QCD simulations, but direct extractions are limited only to very light nuclei, i.e. mass number A ≤ 4, due to computation costs and, more severely, due to several fundamental difficulties. We propose an alternative...

The measurement of very small parity-violating (PV) observables in few-nucleon systems, where nuclear wave functions are calculable, is a via for understanding the hadronic weak interaction (HWI), which remains enigmatic due to the dominance of the strong interaction in hadronic systems and the non-perturbative nature of Quantum Chromodynamics at low energies. Additionally, the study of the...

A status report on chiEFT studies of light-nuclei electro-weak structure and dynamics is provided, including electromagnetic elastic form factors of few-nucleon systems, magnetic moments and M1 radiative widths in A=6-10 nuclei, the pp weak fusion and muon weak captures on deuteron and 3He, and a number of parity-violating processes induced by hadronic weak interactions.
