We report on results of the effective theory method applied to neutron-deuteron scattering. We extend previous results in the $J=3/2$ channel to non-zero energies and find very good agreement with experiment without any parameter fitting.
I outline the effective field theory (EFT) calculation of nucleon-nucleon scattering which was recently carried out to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) by Noam Shoresh and myself. In this calculation only potential pion contributions…
