We show that it is possible to construct a meson-exchange Hamiltonian for N, ..pi.., ..delta.., and N( (1470 MeV) to describe NN scattering up to 2 GeV. The model consists of: (a) vertex interactions ..pi..Nbold-arrow-left-right..delta.. or N(, and ..pi delta..bold-arrow-left-right..delta.. or N( with which an isobar model is constructed to describe the P/sub 33/ and P/sub 11/ ..pi..N scattering phase shifts up to 1 GeV; (b) the transition interactions from NN to N..delta.., ..delta delta.., NN(, and N(N( are determined from one-pion and one-rho exchange mechanisms; (c) the NN..-->..NN interaction is directly derived from the Paris potential by using a momentum-dependent procedure to subtract the contributions from intermediate states involving ..delta.. or N(. The NN..-->..NN scattering equation is cast into the familiar coupled-channel form, but with a highly nonlocal isobar self-energy ..sigma..(E,p) calculated from the vertex interactions ..pi..Nbold-arrow-left-right..delta.. or N( in a dynamical three-body approach. Both the isospin T = 1 and T = 0 NN scattering phase shifts of Arndt et al. up to 1 GeV can be described to a very large extent by the model. The fits are, on the average, better than most of the previous NN calculations.
