The research includes applications of many-body scattering theory to nuclear systems and studies of few-body systems described by effective hadronic field theories. Progress was made in bringing all first-order effects into the nonrelativistic elastic nucleon-nucleus scattering in a consistent fashion. This work is directed towards completely and reliably calculating the first-order term in a Watson expansion including a modification through the nulear medium. The research effort in few-body physics was concentrated on nucleon-nucleon (NN) scattering below pion production threshold, where recent measurements indicated that the backward-angle neutron-proton (np) differential cross section may show sensitivity to the size of the pion-nucleon coupling constant.
