We show that, to a very good approximation, the ratio of the spin-flip to the non-flip parts of the elastic proton-nucleus amplitude is the same as for proton-nucleon scattering at very high energy. The result is used to do a realistic…
The phase shifts for the higher partial waves in the spin quartet and doublet channel of nd scattering are presented at next-to-leading and next-to-next-to-leading order in an effective field theory in which pions are integrated out. The…
We study the implications of lattice QCD determinations of the S-wave nucleon-nucleon scattering lengths at unphysical light quark masses. It is found that with the help of nuclear effective field theory (NEFT), not only the quark mass…
Progress in the Effective Field Theory of two and three nucleon systems is sketched, concentrating on the low energy version in which pions are integrated out as explicit degrees of freedom. Examples given are calculations of deuteron…
We consider the relationship between P-wave pi-N scattering and the strength of the P-wave two-pion-exchange three-nucleon interaction (TPE3NI). We explain why effective theories that do not contain the delta resonance as an explicit degree…

For the effective-range function $k\cot \delta $, a pole approximation that involves a small number of parameters is derived on the basis of the Bargmann representation of the $S$ matrix. The parameters of this representation, which have a…
Investigations of three-body nuclear systems using pionless effective field theory ($\mathrm{EFT}_{\not{\pi}}$) are reviewed. The history of $\mathrm{EFT}_{\not{\pi}}$ in $nd$ and $pd$ scattering is briefly discussed and emphasis put on the…
Low energy phenomena involving two nucleons can be successfully described using effective field theory. Because of the relatively large expansion parameter, it is only at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) where one can expect to see…
Two independent calculations of proton-deuteron elastic scattering observables including Coulomb repulsion between the two protons are compared in the proton lab energy region between 3 MeV and 65 MeV. The hadron dynamics is based on the…
The neutron-matter equation of state constrains the properties of many physical systems over a wide density range and can be studied systematically using chiral effective field theory (EFT). In chiral EFT, all many-body forces among…
