A Practical Method for Relativistic 3N-Scattering Calculations with Realistic Potentials
Abstract
Using a scale transformation in momentum space a phase equivalent relativistic potential is generated from the nonrelativistic potential. By that transformation a practical method for the relativistic 3N scattering with realistic nucleon-nucleon potentials is introduced. The formalism can be applied to any realistic nonrelativistic potential. We also discuss the locations of the moving logarithmic singularities of the free relativistic three-body Green's function. It enters in the relativistic 3N Faddeev equations, which have been formulated long time ago for a 3-boson bound state and which we propose to also use for 3N scattering. Finally we compare relativistic deuteron wave functions to nonrelativistic ones.
