Step 1 define non-local but energy-independent potential as
[k − H0] k(x) =
k = k2 2µ
non-relativistic kinetic energy
µ = mN/2
reduced mass
H0 = −∇2 2µ
non-relativistic free Hamiltonian
“proof of existence” Using NBS wave functions below inelastic threshold, we can construct U(x, y) =
Wk,Wk≤Wth
[k − H0] k(x)−1
k,k† k(y)
ηk,k = (ϕk, ϕk)
inner product inverse of
∀Wp ≤ Wth
Indeed, it is easy to see
elastic elastic
[k − H0]k(x)−1
k,kk,p = [p − H0]p(x)
If we solve Schroedinger equation with this potential, we obtain NBS wave function as a solution, which gives correct the “phase shift” by construction. Finite size effect to the potential is small if the box is large enough. non-local potential which satisfies the Schroedinger equation is NOT unique. there exist many potentials different only for inelastic scatterings. No non-relativistic approximation is used. Equal NBS WF has no time. time dependence can be derived from Lorentz transformation, but no new information on scattering. Schroedinger equation is convenient for nuclear physics calculations. In practice, it is almost impossible to calculate non-local potential from the above construction. We will introduce some “approximation”.
Step 2 velocity(derivative) expansion
U(x, y) = V (x, r)δ3(x y)
V (x, ∇) = V0(r) + Vσ(r)(σ1 · σ2) + VT (r)S12 + VLS(r)L · S + O(∇2)

To calcilate non-local potentil in terms of this expansion is a part of “our scheme”. Ex:Leading order
VLO(x) = [k − H0]k(x) k(x)
Step 3
equation in infinite volume with the potential obtained with this expansion. Physical observables have some errors due to the truncation of the expansion. It is possible to estimate these errors.
Comments “potentials” are NOT physical observables, and therefore depend on their definition (scheme). Phase shifts and binding energies do NOT depend on the scheme. analogy:running coupling in QCD. Scheme dependent. Cross section is an observable. choice of nucleon operator、definition of non-local potential, derivative expansion “good” scheme ? fast convergence of the derivative expansion(convenient)。 analogy: fast convergence of perturbative expansion (“good” running coupling). it is best if local potential is exact. energy-independent “local” potential?(”inverse scattering problem”) Potential is useful to understand “physics”, though it is not observable. analogy:asymptotic freedom. attractions at long and intermediate distances, repulsive core Our proposal: give a method to extract observables in QCD via potential.

Qualitative features of NN potential are reproduced. (1)attractions at medium and long distances (2)repulsion at short distance(repulsive core) It has a reasonable shape. The strength is weaker due to the heavier quark mass. Need calculations at physical quark mass( 140 MeV pion).

If the higher order terms are large, LO potentials determined from NBS wave functions at different energy become different.(cf. LOC of ChPT). Numerical check in quenched QCD Higher order terms turn out to be very small at low energy in our scheme.

both methods agree very well. This establishes a validity of the potential method and shows a good convergence of the velocity expansion. Convergence of velocity expansion: estimate 2 phase shifts

At large R, perform Q-integral as before. Non-relativistic approximation is needed. Even for n-body, NBS wave function =scattering wave in QM, at large R. phase shift in n-body scattering = phase of S-matrix phase of S-matrix in QFT =phase shift (n-body generalization). a use of hyper-spherical harmonic function in D=3(n-1) dim is a key. However, non-relativistic approximation, unnecessary for 2-body case, is required for n-body cases. Asymptotic behavior of NBS wave functions scattering wave with “phase shift” !
