The E1 contribution to the capture reactionis calculated at low energies. We employ a coupled-channel formalism to account for theexcited core contribution. We develop a halo effective field theory power counting where capture in the spinchannel is enhanced over thechannel. A next-to-leading order calculation is presented where the excited core contribution is shown to affect only the overall normalization of the cross section. The momentum dependence of the capture cross section, as a consequence, is the same in a theory with or without the exciteddegree of freedom at this order of the calculation. The kinematical signature of thecore is negligible at momenta below 1 MeV and significant only beyond theresonance energy, though still compatible with a next-to-next-to-leading order correction. We compare our formalism with a previous halo effective field theory calculation [Zhang et al., Phys. Rev. C89, 024613 (2014)] that also treated thecore as an explicit degree of freedom. Our formal expressions and analysis disagree with this earlier work in several aspects.
