Regularization, Renormalization and Range: The Nucleon-Nucleon Interaction from E ective Field Theory
Regularization and renormalization is discussed in the context of low-energy e ective eld theory treatments of two or more heavy particles (such as nucleons). It is desirable to regulate the contact interactions from the outset by treating them as having a nite range. The low energy physical observables should be insensitive to this range provided that the range is of a similar or greater scale...
متن کاملRegularization and renormalization in effective field theories of the nucleon - nucleon interaction
Some form of nonperturbative regularization is necessary if effective field theory treatments of the NN interaction are to yield finite answers. We discuss various regularization schemes used in the literature. Two of these methods involve formally iterating the divergent interaction and then regularizing and renormalizing the resultant amplitude. Either a (sharp or smooth) cutoff can be introd...
متن کاملComparison of Regularization Methods for Nucleon-nucleon Effective Field Theory
The characteristics of a meaningful effective field theory (EFT) analysis are discussed and compared with traditional approaches to NN scattering. A key feature of an EFT treatment is a systematic expansion in powers of momentum, which is demonstrated using an error analysis introduced by Lepage. A clear graphical determination of the radius of convergence for the momentum expansion is also obt...
متن کاملNucleon-Nucleon interactions from effective field theory
We have established a new convergent scheme to treat analytically nucleon-nucleon interactions from a chiral effective field theory. The Kaplan-Savage-Wise (KSW) amplitudes are resummed to fulfill the unitarity or right hand cut to all orders below pion production threshold. This is achieved by matching order by order in the KSW power counting the general expression of a partial wave with resum...
متن کاملNucleon-Nucleon Scattering from Effective Field Theory
We perform a nonperturbative calculation of the S0 NN scattering amplitude, using an effective field theory (EFT) expansion. We use dimensional regularization throughout, and the MS renormalization scheme; our final result depends only on physical observables. We show that the EFT expansion of the quantity |p| cot δ(p) converges at momenta much greater than the scale Λ that characterizes the de...
