Phenomenological High Precision Neutron-Proton Delta-Shell Potential

Abstract

We provide a successful fit for proton-neutron scattering below pion production threshold up to LAB energies of 350 MeV. We use seven high-quality fits based on potentials with different forms as a measure of the systematic uncertainty. We represent the interaction as a sum of delta-shells in configuration space below the 3fm and a charge dependent one pion exchange potential above 3fm together with magnetic and vacuum polarization effects. Special attention is paid to estimate the errors of the phenomenological interaction.
