Modern Chiral Forces Applied to the Nucleon-Deuteron Radiative Capture

The chiral nucleon-nucleon interaction with semi-local regularization up to the fifth order of chiral expansion is applied to the nucleon-deuteron radiative capture process. Our theoretical approach is based on the formalism of Faddeev equations and the Siegert theorem is exploited to construct the electromagnetic current operator. The very weak dependence of the differential cross section on values of the regularization parameter is observed. This suggests that the improved chiral two-body interaction is a promising starting point to study electromagnetic processes at low energies.
