We extend and systematise the power counting for the three-body system, in the context of the ``pion-less'' Effective Field Theory approach, to all orders in the low-energy expansion. We show that a sub-leading part of the three-body force appears at the third order and delineate how the expansion proceeds at higher orders. After discussing the renormalisation issues in a simple bosonic model, we compute the phase shifts for neutron-deuteron scattering in the doublet S wave (triton) channel and compare our results with phase shift analysis and potential model calculations.

  1. Model-independent mass determination of near-threshold states from short-range production

    hep-ph 2025-10 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    A model-independent minimum in short-range production rates of dimer-spectator systems allows precise mass extraction for near-threshold states via a fixed relation to the observed dip position.

  2. Searching for the Tetraneutron Resonance on the Lattice

    nucl-th 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Lattice EFT calculations find no resonance signature in the tetraneutron ground-state energy, only a weak attraction in the dineutron-dineutron phase shift whose confined energy is close to the experimental low-energy peak.

  3. Short-range production of three bottom mesons

    hep-ph 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Leading-order predictions for three-body point production rates of B and B* meson systems are derived in short-range NREFT from two-body input alone.

  4. Coulomb Corrections to Three-Nucleon Moments

    nucl-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Pionless EFT calculations find unexpectedly small O(alpha) Coulomb corrections to three-nucleon magnetic moments and GT matrix elements, yielding a fitted prediction for the proton-proton fusion reduced matrix element...

    nucl-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Non-perturbative Coulomb corrections in LO pionless EFT give a 0.85(3) MeV He-3/H-3 binding split, 0.043(2) fm charge-radius shift, 0.036(2) fm magnetic-radius shift, and -0.0041(1) μ_N moment shift.
