Abstract
The and contributions to at low energies are calculated in halo effective field theory. The excited core is included as an explicit degree of freedom in a coupled-channels calculation. The transition is calculated up to next-to-next-to-leading order. The leading contribution from transition that gives significant contribution in a narrow energy region around the resonance state of is included. We compare our results with previous halo effective field theory calculations that also included the as an explicit degree of freedom. We disagree with these previous calculations in both the formal expressions and also in the analysis. Bayesian inference of the data gives eV b when combined with the expected theory error.
