The self-energy of the Δ resonance in a finite volume is calculated by using chiral effective field theory with explicit spin-3/2 fields. The calculations are performed up-to-and-including fourth order in the small scale expansion and yield an explicit parameterization of the energy spectrum of the interacting π N pair in a finite box in terms of both the quark mass and the box size L. We show that finite-volume corrections are sizable at small quark masses. The values of certain low-energy constants are extracted from fitting to the available data in lattice QCD.
