This document is one of a series of whitepapers from the USQCD collaboration. Here, we discuss opportunities for lattice QCD calculations related to the structure and spectroscopy of hadrons and nuclei. An overview of recent lattice…

We study the scattering of a particle from a bound pair in an effective field theory using a distorted-wave renormalisation group method to find the power-counting for the three-body force terms. We find that three-body terms appear at…
