A Perturbative Study of the Uncoupled P-Wave Channels for Two-Nucleon Scattering

The uncoupled P-wave channels of two-nucleon scattering are studied perturbatively from the perspective of effective field theories (EFTs). In this talk I discuss an EFT for these channels that includes a perturbative dibaryon field and perturbative pions. The results of the next-to-next-to-leading order EFT show a good agreement with the Nijmegen partial wave analysis for momenta up to k_{cm} ~ 400 MeV.
