Description
I will discuss the NPLQCD collaboration's recent calculations of the magnetic moments
and polarisabilities of light nuclei up to A=4 using background field methods. I will also describe an a calculation of the magnetic transition amplitude that determines the
$n p \to d \gamma$ cross section that is of central importance in Big Bang Nucleosynthesis.
