Title: Triton binding energies with two-body radial distortion unitary transforms. Technical report 74-059

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4317537

The triton binding energies are determined for a class of potentials that arise from radial distortion unitary transformations. These potentials are phase-shift equivalent to a two-term Yukawa potential, which represents an average of the /sup 3/S/sub 1/ and /sup 1/S/sub o / nucleonnucleon potentials. An angular-momentum decomposed version of the Faddeev-Lovelace equations that were developed, in order to obtain the three-body binding energy, E/sub T/, is solved. It is observed that E/sub T/ varies slightly with these potentials, and it is found that they yield similar deuteron wave functions, in accord with the results reported by Haftel. Some evidence is discussed on the sensitivity of nuclear matter and three-body calculations to off-shell variations of the two- body t-matrices. (auth)
