The traditional approach to nuclear physics encodes phase shift information in a nucleon-nucleon (NN) potential, producing a nucleon-level interaction that captures the sub-GeV consequences of QCD. A further reduction to the nuclear scale…
We construct phenomenologically a relativistic particle-particle channel interaction which suits the gap equation for nuclear matter. This is done by introducing a density-independent momentum-cutoff parameter to the relativistic mean field…
