Abstract
The triton point charge radius is calculated to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in pionless effective field theory , yielding a prediction of fm (leading order), fm (next-to leading order), and fm (NNLO) in agreement with the current experimental extraction of fm [Angeli and Marinova, At. Data Nucl. Data Tables 99, 69 (2013)]. The error at NNLO is due to cutoff variation () within a reasonable range of calculated cutoffs and from a error estimate (). In addition new techniques are introduced to add perturbative corrections to bound- and scattering state calculations for short-range effective field theories, but with a focus on their use in .
