θ-dependence of light nuclei and nucleosynthesis
We investigate the impact of the QCD vacuum at nonzero θ on the properties of light nuclei, Big Bang nucleosynthesis, and stellar nucleosynthesis. Our analysis starts with a calculation of the θ-dependence of the neutron-proton mass difference and neutron decay using chiral perturbation theory. We t...
