Reworking the Tucson-Melbourne Three-Nucleon Potential

Abstract
We introduce new values of the strength constants (i.e., , , , and coefficients) of the Tucson-Melbourne (TM) 2 exchange three nucleon potential. The new values come from contemporary dispersion relation analyses of meson factory N scattering data. We make variational Monte Carlo calculations of the triton with the original and updated three-body forces to study the effects of this update. We remove a short-range -- -range part of the potential due to the coefficient and discuss the effect on the triton binding energy.
