MAGNETIC MOMENT OF THE DEUTERON
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4197427
A contribution to the deuteron magnetic moment which results from the altered expectation values of nucleon core spins in the bound state is calculated. The adiabatic approximation in which the pi meson clouds of a static-nucleon model are assumed to follow the orbital motion of the sources, is used. The two- nucleon states are expanded in Heitler-London states; the expectation value of the deuteron magnetic moment operator is related to single-nucleon matrix elements by means of an expansion corresponding to exchange of various numbers of mesons between the nucleons. The single-nucleon matrix elements are evaluated using the Chew-Low-Wick fixed-source theory. If an orbital wave-function with a relatively large D-state probability is used, the one-meson exchange terms give an increase in the deuteron magnetic moment of about 1 percent. The two-meson exchange terms are considerably smaller than the one-meson exchange terms. (auth)
