Abstract
I discuss the conditions under which the application of chiral perturbation theory to the NN potential gives reliable results for NN scattering phase shifts. ChiPT also yields a convergent expansion for the deuteron charge operator. For cutoffs < 1 GeV, this produces precise predictions for deuterium's quadrupole and charge form factors in the range Q^2 < 0.25 GeV^2.
