We discuss effective field theory treatments of the problem of three particles interacting via short-range forces. One case of such a system is neutron-deuteron scattering at low energies. We demonstrate that in attractive channels the…
Strong interactions produce a rich spectrum of resonances that decay into three or more hadrons. Understanding their phenomenology requires a theoretical framework to extract parameters fromexperimental data and Lattice QCD simulations of…
We provide systematic analysis of the differential cross section of the proton-$^3{\rm He}$ elastic scattering at $\theta_{\rm cm}=180^{\circ}$ and at $T_p<700$ MeV. Three mechanisms are discussed: 2N pair exchange in the triplet and…
The inclusive 2H(3He,t) reaction has been studied at 2 GeV for energy transfers up to 500 MeV and scattering angles from 0.25 up to 4 degrees. Data are well reproduced by a model based on a coupled-channel approach for describing the NN and…

The use of leading order effective field theory (EFT) to describe neutron-deuteron scattering leads to integral equations that have unusual behaviour: when only two-body interactions are included, the scattering amplitude does not approach…
