A second-order supersymmetric transformation is presented, for the two-channel Schrodinger equation with equal thresholds. It adds a Breit-Wigner term to the mixing parameter, without modifying the eigenphase shifts, and modifies the potential matrix analytically. The iteration of a few such transformations allows a precise fit of realistic mixing parameters in terms of a Pade expansion of both the scattering matrix and the effective-range function. The method is applied to build an exactly-solvable potential for the neutron-proton $^3S_1$-$^3D_1$ case.

We apply the Marchenko method of quantum inverse scattering to study nucleon scattering problems. Assuming a $beta/r^2$ type repulsive core and comparing our results to the Reid93 phenomenological potential we estimate the constant $beta$, determining the singularity strength, in various spin/isospin channels. Instead of using Bargmann type S-matrices which allows only integer singularity strength, here we consider an analytical approach based on the incomplete data method, which is suitable for fractional singularity strengths as well.
The discrete energy-eigenvalues of two nucleons interacting with a finite-range nuclear force and confined to a harmonic potential are used to numerically reconstruct the free-space scattering phase shifts. The extracted phase shifts are compared to those obtained from the exact continuum scattering solution and agree within the uncertainties of the calculations. Our results suggest that it might be possible to determine the amplitudes for the scattering of complex systems, such as n-d, n-t or n-alpha, from the energy-eigenvalues confined to finite volumes using ab-initio bound-state techniques.
In the rest frame of a many-body system, used in the calculation of its static and scattering properties, the center of mass of a two-body subsystem is allowed to drift. We show, in a model independent way, that drift corrections to the nucleon-nucleon potential are relatively large and arise from both one- and two-pion exchange processes. As far as chiral symmetry is concerned, corrections to these processes begin respectively at $cO(q^2)$ and $cO(q^4)$. The two-pion exchange interaction also yields a new spin structure, that promotes the presence of $P$ waves in trinuclei and is associated with profile functions which do not coincide with neither central nor spin-orbit ones. In principle, the new spin terms should be smaller than the $cO(q^3)$ spin-orbit components. However, in the isospin even channel, a large contribution reverts this expectation and gives rise to the prediction of important drift effects.
A supersymmetric inversion method is applied to the singlet $^1S_0$ and $^1P_1$ neutron-proton elastic phase shifts. The resulting central potential has a one-pion-exchange (OPE) long-range behavior and a parity-independent short-range part; it fits inverted data well. Adding a regularized OPE tensor term also allows the reproduction of the triplet $^3P_0$, $^3P_1$ and $^3S_1$ phase shifts as well as of the deuteron binding energy. The potential is thus also spin-independent (except for the OPE part) and contains no spin-orbit term. These important simplifications of the neutron-proton interaction are shown to be possible only if the potential possesses Pauli forbidden bound states, as proposed in the Moscow nucleon-nucleon model.
We apply the large-$N_c$ expansion to the time-reversal-invariance-violating (TV) nucleon-nucleon potential. The operator structures contributing to next-to-next-to-leading order in the large-$N_c$ counting are constructed. For the TV and parity-violating case we find a single operator structure at leading order. The TV but parity-conserving potential contains two leading-order terms, which however are suppressed by 1/$N_c$ compared to the parity-violating potential. Comparison with phenomenological potentials, including the chiral EFT potential in the TV parity-violating case, leads to large-$N_c$ scaling relations for TV meson-nucleon and nucleon-nucleon couplings.
