Low energy $n-\nuc{3}{H}$ scattering : a novel testground for nuclear interaction

Nuclear Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The low energy n\nuc3Hn-\nuc{3}{H} elastic cross sections near the resonance peak are calculated by solving the 4-nucleon problem with realistic NN interactions. Three different methods -- Alt, Grassberger and Shandas (AGS), Hyperspherical Harmonics and Faddeev-Yakubovsky -- have been used and their respective results are compared. We conclude on a failure of the existing NN forces to reproduce the n\nuc3Hn-\nuc{3}{H} total cross section.
