Free nucleon-nucleon scattering is investigated with the explicit treatment of 6(1236) resonances. Thecoupled channel problem (NN + N4 + hA) is solved and compared with the results obtained fromperturbation calculations (impulse approximation). The nucleon-nucleon potential used is the Reid-soft-corepotential which has been modified according to the phase shift and deuteron binding energy requirements.The perturbation treatment turns out to be not a very good approximation as the 6 admixtures are off up toabout 50% in a nonsystematic way.

I. INTRODUCTION

I

It has been recognized for a long time that thenucleon resonances play an important role in theunderstanding of the nucleon-nucleon interaction. 'Especially in the medium range of the interactionwhere the resonances occur as intermediate statesin the two-boson exchange part of the potential,these contributions are able to replace the pheno-menological 0 particle to a large extent. " Re-membering the important role of the resonancesin the NN potential, some workers have tried totreat the nucleon resonances explicitly as addi-tional degrees of freedom in the many-body prob-lem. ~ ' Of course such an explicit treatmentbrings up severe problems for the actual calcula-tion of many-body properties. For example, theBethe-Goldstone equation, which is already verycomplicated in the pure nucleonic case, general-izes to an equation containing additional couplingsto the resonance states. The solution of the coupledchannel problem in the full complexity has beenobtained up to now only in the nuclear matterproblem. " The explicit treatment of resonancesin the case of finite nuclei is still done in a pertur-bation treatment of the resonance parts. ' As faras the two-nucleon system is concerned, thereare several papers in which the effect of reso-nance admixtures in the deuteron is investigated. ' "Some authors also considered NN scattering. 'For a review of the whole subject see Ref. 17 and18.

The present paper is devoted to two subjects:(i) The calculation of the full NN, Nb, , 6h po

tential. This includes the solution of the fullcoupled channel problem for free NN scatteringand the deuteron. Such phase-correct potentialsare needed in order to obtain a realistic treatment

of the many-body problem.(ii) As the & contributions in finite nuclei are

calculated in a perturbative approach, we want tosee how good such a treatment is already in thecase of a two-nucleon system.

We describe the NN part of the interaction bythe phenomenological Beid-soft-core potential. "The reason is that for calculations of many-bodyproperties this potential is the one most widelyused. In the explicit treatment of the resonancesby a coupled channel calculation the potential willbe refitted to give the correct two-body data (phaseshifts and deuteron binding energy). For the com-parison of the solution of the full coupled channelproblem with the perturbation treatment we haveto restrict ourselves to the discussion of the wavefunctions.

In Sec. II we formulate the problem and in Sec.III we present the numerical results and give aconcluding discussion.

lI. RESONANCE DEGREES OF FREEDOM IN THETWO-NUCLEON SYSTEM

A, Schrodinger equation with inclusion of resonances

The conventional treatment of the two-nucleonproblem yields a Schrodinger equation of the fol-lowing form:

r, +V,. IP (l 2)&=~-lg-(i 2)&j=1,2

Here T,. denotes the kinetic energy of the ith nu-cleon and V„ the interaction of nucleon-1 withnucleon 2. In this approach the resonances do notoccur explicitly; they are implicitly taken intoaccount as intermediate states of many mesonexchange processes in phenomenological interac-tions (as the Reid potential, e.g.).

1979 The American Physical Society

Page 2: Resonance degrees of freedom in the two-nucleon system

20 RESONANCE DEGREES OF FREEDOM IN THE TWO-NUCLEON. . .

Treating the resonances explicitly the Schro-dinger equation reads

where fP „(1,2)) describes the spatial part and

fx „(1,2)& the intrinsic properties (e.g. , spin, iso-spin) of the configuration n. With the normaliza-tion condition

(5)

In contrast to Eq. (1) there is now an additionalterm in the total Hamiltonian, the "intrinsic"Hamiltonian II ',.". This term denotes the intrinsicexcitation energy of the ith particle. The two-body state fP (1, 2)& can now be written as a sumof different intrinsic configurations, namely

(s)

we have

or with the definition

i=lp2

(6)

Configuration n= 1 gives the conventional part ofthe wave function, i.e., both particles are nu-cleons. In the case of n&1 at least one particle isintrinsically excited, i.e., at least one particleis a resonance. The states fg „(1,2)& can be writ-ten as

B. Coupled channel approach

In this chapter we want to express Eq. (I) incoordinate space. In the case of a two-nucleonsystem we may confine ourselves to the solutionof this equation in the "center-of- momentum"(c.m. ) frame. The wave function then reads

UJr&r fg~(1, 2)&= g r(r) = Q Q "~' A~n; [L(s,s2)S]Z; (t~t2)T&.

n L, S(8)

A is an antisymmetrization operator which is necessary if we assume that the interaction V» is sym-metric with respect to the exchange of the two particles, [V,A]=0. Inserting (8) into Eq. (t) we obtainthe following system of coupled differential equations for the radial functions U~~r,(z):

—2p,„(EM„—E) U„~~~(r) =2p„Q Q V„~~~ ~.~. U ~.~.(r).

Here p„denotes the reduced mass of the configuration n

n n

M +Mn n

is the expectation value of the intrinsic Hamiltonian. The matrix elements of the interaction are given by

V„z~ ~~. = (n; [I (s,s,)SJJ;(t,t, )T fAVAfm; [I '(s,'s,')S']J; (t,'t,')T&.

The boundary conditions which must be imposed upon Eq. (9) depend on the sign of the c.m. energy. Forscattering states (E& 0), in which we are mainly interested in this paper, they read

(i2)

(Is)

U~~r~(r) „;r~", for all n (we assume that the potential is less singular than I/r')

U„zz(r) = sin(k~ ——,'L w+ 6&~), for n= 1g~Oo

U„zz(r) - 0, for n&1.g~ OO

We stress the fact that the exact asymptotic solution (r-~) of Eq. (9) for n& 1 is not determined by theterm 2p.„(&M„—E) but depends mainly on the term 2g„Zz.z. [V~zrz, z.z. U~~~rz. (r)]. It is therefore rather te-dious to determine it. We found out that the simple form of Eq. (13) is sufficient for all cases under con-sideration.

C. First order perturbation theory

As an alternative to the approach given in Sec. IIB one might think of a perturbative solution of Eq. (7).As the resonance admixtures are expected to be small, first order perturbation theory should be suffi-cient. One obtains"

D. Baryon-baryon potentials

The equations given so far are quite general,i.e., they are valid for all types of nucleon reso-nances (N* and &). In our numerical treatmentwe shall restrict ourselves to the inclusion ofd(1236) resonances. Because of general selec-tion rules (parity, isospin, angular momentum,and, additionally, antisymmetry in the case of &4configurations) only specific partial wave com-ponents are allowed. They are summarized inTables I and II for isospin T=1 and T=O. Allpossible components for J & 2 are shown.

For the numerical evaluation of the Eq. (9) and

(15) we need the matrix elements of the potential

As already mentioned we use for the NN part ofthe interaction the usual Reid-soft-core potentialin the case of Eq. (15) (first order perturbationtheory), whereas in the case of Eq. (9) (coupledchannel approach) the Reid potential has to bemodified. The reason for this modification is dueto the fact that in the coupled channel approach

Thus if one wants to deal with resonancedegrees of freedom explicitly, one has to removethe resonance effects from the NK potential toavoid double counting. We managed this problemby a-complete new fit of the potential parameters.This has the advantage of an energy-independentpotential definition and thus allows the conventionaltreatment of the many-body problem. Anotherprescription to remove the double counting effectshas been given by Green and Niskanen. 4 W'ith theirprocedure' they obtain an energy-dependent NN

We first mention the older method in whichFeynman techniques are used to determine the Mmatrices for the relevant processes (see Fig. 1).The potentials are then given by the Fourier trans-forms of the nonrelativistic approximations of theM matrices. We choose the following baryon-baryon- meson vertex form factor:

paper should be identical with Eq. (11)—(18) in Ref. 13. Unfortunately there are two misprints in Eqs. (16)and (1V} of Ref. 13, the sign of the last term in Eq. (16) and the overall sign of Eq. (IV) is opposite.

The second method to determine the transition part of the resonance potentials has been described byDurso et al." The main idea of this method. is to identify parts of a two-pion exchange graph with anintermediate resonance with a twice iterated one-pion exchange process (see Fig. 2). This procedureyields a one-pion exchange transition potential which is proportional to (if we forget about spin and iso-spin)

In spite of the advantages of the new method todetermine transition potentials, the situation isnot yet satisfactory. Durso's method is not ableto give predictions for the interaction betweenresonances, so one is forced to use the Feynmanprescription for the interaction between reso-nances. Of course this is somewhat inconsistentand the results obtained with this procedure shouldnot be looked at as final results. It is known that

especially in 8 states changes in the interactionbetween resonances may give rise to great changesin the admixture probabilities. Therefore we donot think it would be worthwhile to calculate all KNscattering states with the expressions (26) or (2V).In this work we will use the approximate expres-sion (28b} which is much easier to handle. Theeffect of the different approximations (26)-(28b}will be discussed in the case of the deuteron. In-cluding the form factor (22), the potentialsVNN

III. NUMERICAL RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

One aim of this paper is to compare the resultsof the coupled channel approach and first orderperturbation theory. To get reliable results inthe case of the coupled channel approach, one isforced to remove the aforementioned implicit reso-nance effects from the Reid potential. %e there-fore made new X' fits of our modified Reid poten-tial to the NN scattering data and the deuteronbinding energy. As we did not include the Coulombforce in our calculations, we could not use theexperimental proton-proton scattering data. Sowe used the phase shifts calculated with the usual

Reid potential to determine the potential parame-ters a,,. These parameters are summarized inTables V-VII; they are valid for a regularizationparameter A = 5.0 fm-'. %e first discuss the re-sults which are obtained with the potential (22) andset (a) of the coupling constants given in Table IV,that is, we use the potential parameters a, , of Ta-ble V for our modified Reid potential.

In Figs. 4-6 we present some phase shifts forthe conventional calculation (only nucleonic de-grees of freedom} and for the explicit treatmentof the & resonance. These figures show thequality of the fit. In Figs. 7-10 we give the mostimportant N4 and 4~ wave functions of the scat-tering states for 30 MeV laboratory energy and thedeuteron &4 wave functions. In addition we havelisted the integral N (square of the norm) of theresonance wave functions for the perturbationtreatment and the exact solution

We realize that in some cases both perturbationtreatment and exact solution agree quite well.However, just for the largest components at 30MeV, the perturbation treatment is off by =20%up to =60/o compared to the exact solution. It isinteresting to see that there is no general trendin these deviations. In some cases the perturbationtreatment gives larger results, in some cases theresults are smaller. This means that if we do a

comparable treatment in finite nuclei or nuclearmatter we obtain only very rough information. Forexample, the most important ~ contribution ex-ists in the 'S,NN channel. The Nb 'D, partialwave integral N differs by 58% compared to theexact solution. The perturbation calculation over-estimates this contribution considerably. This istrue also for other energies.

As far as the deuteron is concerned there is al-so an overestimation of the large &&'D, compo-nent in the perturbation treatment: 0.76% admix-ture compared to 0.58%. The ~4'S, componenton the other hand is underestimated: 0.08% com-pared to 0.11%. The total ~ probability calculatedwith perturbation theory differs by about 20% fromthe exact value.

Concerning a perturbation treatment of 4 de-grees of freedom in finite nuclei or nuclear mat-ter, we do not expect this to be a good approxima-tion because of the bad reproduction of the largestcomponents.

To get an idea of the energy dependence of theresonance admixtures, we show in Fig. j.l the in-tegral N of some resonance partial waves (exactsolutions) as a function of the laboratory energy.W'e have selected those partial waves which aremost important at 30 MeV and the largest ones at300 MeV.

In Fig. 12 we present the NN 'S, wave functioncalculated without 4 admixtures (usual nuclearphysics) and the wave function which follows fromthe coupled channel calculation. The latter func-tion is smaller for distances up to 2 fm. This is

true in all NN partial waves. Of course this changeof the NÃ wave function does not occur in first or-der perturbation theory. %e think it would beworthwhile to examine the effect of this wavefunction renormalization in electromagnetic pro-cesses, for example.

In addition to the vector-dominance model valuesfor the p-meson coupling constants [set (a) in Ta-ble IV], we also use the values corresponding tothe coupling constant analysis of Ref. 23 and. 24.These values are summarized in Table IV [set (b)].%'e made two further fits of our modified Reid po-tential to the scattering data with these couplingconstants and the resonance potential Eq. (22) (Ta-ble VI) and alternatively the Durso potential Eq.(29) (Table VII). Some resultant resonance wavefunctions are shown in Figs. 13-16. Comparingthe two calculations with the resonance potentialEq. (22) and the different sets of coupling con-stants, we recognize that there is no generaltrend. The change in the integrals N varies from-7.2% up to 33.3% compared with the old values.The change in the largest admixtures to each NNpartial wave however is smaller: —7.2% up to I%%uo.

The total admixture probability in the deuteronis increased from 0.768 to 0.814.

The resonance wave functions calculated with theDurso potential are also shown in Figs. 13-16. Inthe asymptotic region they are generally smalleror at least not larger than those calculated withpotential Eq. (22). This effect is caused by the

In Fig. 17 we have calculated the energy depen-dence of some large resonance admixtures usingthe experimental coupling constants [Table IV, set(b)]. It can be seen that the integrals N of thelargest resonance admixtures to the 'S„'P„and('S, —'D, ) NN partial waves are decreased when

the Durso potential is used.Finally we have used Eqs. (26)-(28b) and the

transition part of potential Eq. (22) to calculatethe integrals N of the resonance partial wavesin the deuteron. The coordinate-space potentialswere obtained from Eqs. (26)-(28a) by performingthe Fourier transformation numerically. Again theform factor Eq. (21) was included in the same wayas in the potentials Eq. (22) and (29) (A = 5.0 fm-').m and p exchange was taken into account with thecoupling constants of Table IV [set (b)]; the inter-action between resonances was neglected. Weadjusted the binding energy of the deuteron to theexperimental value by modifying only the parame-ter a» in our modified Reid potential Eq. (19).The results of these calculations are shown in Ta-ble VIII. First of all we recognize that the total

admixture probability is decreased continuouslyfrom 0.79'%%u~ to 0.39%%uo when going from potential(22) via the different approximations to the exactexpression (26). At a first glance it is somewhatsurprising that the change from potential Eq. (22)to Eq. (29) does not bring up such a great effect ascould be expected from Fig. 3. But a more ca.re-ful investigation of Fig. 3 shows that the maindifferences between Eq. (22) and Eq. (29) appearfor small values of the momentum transfer q,for higher values of q the two curves coincide.Thus only the long range part of the coordinate-space potential is modified. In this region the NN

wave function is small too, so the effect is notvery important. Remembering that the deuteronS wave ha.s its maximum value at short distances(=1.5 fm), one should expect that a change of thepotential at large values of q will also produce aconsiderable change in the admixture probabilities.This effect shows up if one varies the potentialfrom Eq. (28b) to (28a) or from Eq. (28a) to (26)as should be expected from Fig. 3. As a resultof these calculations one can say that it is quiteimportant to use a "correct" transition potentialbecause the admixture probabilities sensitively de-pend on this potential. On the other hand the useof the correct transition potential will not giveany final result unless a prescription for the de-termination of the interaction between resonancesis found and the choice of the form factor is lessarbitrary. To demonstrate the last point we showin Fig. 18 the wave functions of the && 'D, ad-mixture to the deuteron calculated with the transi-tion potential Eq. (22) (no && interaction) for dif-ferent values of the parameter ~. The admixtureprobability varies from 0.428/~ (A = 4.0 fm-') up to0.875% (A=8.0 fm ').

We are especially grateful to Prof. H. Waffler.for his generous help. This work was partiallysupported by Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.
