Nuclear matter from the ladder resummation in terms of the experimental nucleon-nucleon scattering amplitudes

Abstract

Infinite nuclear matter is studied by resuming the series of ladder diagrams based on the results developed by us in Ann. Phys. 437, 168741 (2022). The master formula for the energy density is explicitly solved for the case of contact interactions, within a pionless description of the nucleon-nucleon interactions. Renormalized results are obtained which are directly expressed in terms of the nucleon-nucleon phase shifts and mixing angles in partial-wave amplitudes up to an including $G$ waves, with convergence reached under the inclusion of higher partial waves. The energy per particle, density and sound velocity resulting from the ladder series are given for symmetric and neutron matter. This resummation of the ladder diagrams provides a rigorous result that may be used as low-density reference for other parameterizations of $\bar{\mathcal{E}}$ for higher densities.
