This paper shows that in the presence of massive particles, such as nucleons, the standard low-energy expansion, in powers of meson momenta and light-quark masses, in general converges in only part of the low-energy region

A review of the implications of the spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in QCD for processes involving one, two or more nucleons.

The main elements and methods of chiral perturbation theory, the effective field theory of the Standard Model below the scale of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking, are summarized

These lectures provide an introduction to the basic ideas and methods of Effective Field Theory, and a description of a few interesting phenomenological applications in particle physics.

Standard SU(2) Heavy Baryon Chiral Perturbation Theory is extended in order to include the case of small or even vanishing quark condensate

A paper by T. E. Rudy, H. W. Fearing and S. Scherer providing an introduction to chiral perturbation theory.
