Description
The two-nucleon system is ubiquitous in nuclear physics and has long served as a test bed for nuclear models and calculations. Recent advances in lattice QCD have allowed the first investigations of the two nucleon system, along with the formalism necessary to calculate matrix elements and connect them to physical observables. In this talk, we will address the need for electroweak matrix elements of the two nucleon system and the current work being done to extract new physics from lattice calculations.
