Subtractive renormalization of the chiral potentials up to next-to-next-to-leading order in higher NN partial waves

Abstract

We develop a subtractive renormalization scheme to evaluate the P-wave NN scattering phase shifts using chiral effective theory potentials. This allows us to consider arbitrarily high cutoffs in the Lippmann-Schwinger equation (LSE). We employ NN potentials computed up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in chiral effective theory, using both dimensional regularization and spectral-function regularization. Our results obtained from the subtracted P-wave LSE show that renormalization of the NNLO potential can be achieved by using the generalized NN scattering lengths as input--an alternative to fitting the constant that multiplies the P-wave contact interaction in the chiral effective theory NN force. However, in order to obtain a reasonable fit to the NN data at NNLO the generalized scattering lengths must be varied away from the values extracted from the so-called high-precision potentials. We investigate how the generalized scattering lengths extracted from NN data using various chiral potentials vary with the cutoff in the LSE. The cutoff-dependence of these observables, as well as of the phase shifts at $T_{lab}\approx 100$ MeV, suggests that for a chiral potential computed with dimensional regularization the highest LSE cutoff it is sensible to adopt is approximately 1 GeV. Using spectral-function regularization to compute the two-pion-exchange potentials postpones the onset of cutoff dependence in these quantities, but does not remove it.
