Low Scale Saturation of Effective NN Interactions and Their Symmetries

Abstract

The Skyrme force parameters can be uniquely determined by coarse graining the Nucleon-Nucleon (NN) interactions at a characteristic momentum scale. We show how exact Vlowk potentials to second order in momenta are saturated with physical NN scattering threshold parameters at Center of Mass (CM) cut-off scales of about Λ=250MeV for the S-waves and Λ=100MeV for the P-waves. The pattern of Wigner and Serber symmetries unveiled previously and suggested by Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) large Nc contracted symmetry emerges at these scales.
