In the framework of effective field theory we show that, at two-loop order, the mass and width of the \Delta resonance defined via the (relativistic) Breit-Wigner parametrization both depend on the choice of field variables. In contrast,…

Within the dispersion relation approach, solutions of integral equations for the multipoles M_{1+}^{3/2},E_{1+}^{3/2},S_{1+}^{3/2} are found at 0 < Q^2 < 3 GeV^2. These solutions should be used as input for the resonance and nonresonance…
