Asymptotic normalization constants for /sup 3/H. -->. n+d and triton binding energy

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
The asymptotic normalization constants C/sub 2/ and C/sub 0/ for /sup 3/H..-->..n+d are calculated by the 34-channel triton wave functions obtained for the Argonne, the Paris, and the de Tourreil--Rouben--Spring two-nucleon potentials with the Tucson-Melbourne three-nucleon potential. These two-nucleon potentials without the three-nucleon potential yield the ratio C/sub 2//C/sub 0/ at most of 0.04. The Tucson-Melbourne potential makes the value of C/sub 2//C/sub 0/ increase about 10%. This ratio is linearly correlated with the triton binding energy without regard to the potential, provided that the potentials have the same asymptotic (one-pion exchange) behavior. From this relationship, we deduce the value of C/sub 2//C/sub 0/ to be 0.0432 +- 0.0015.
