Perturbative Renormalizability of Chiral Two Pion Exchange in Nucleon-Nucleon Scattering: P- and D-waves

arXiv:1108.0872 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.84.064002

Abstract

We study the perturbative renormalizability of chiral two pion exchange in nucleon-nucleon scattering for p- and d-waves within the effective field theory approach. The one pion exchange potential is fully iterated at the leading order in the expansion, a choice generating a consistent and well-defined power counting that we explore in detail. The results show that perturbative chiral two pion exchange reproduces the data up to a center-of-mass momentum of k_cm ~300 MeV at NNLO and that the effective field theory expansion convergences up to k_cm ~ 350 MeV.
