Momentum Distributions and Short-Range Correlations in Few-Nucleon Systems Using Realistic Interactions

Abstract

Abstract We present predictions for the single-nucleon and spin-isospin projected two-nucleon momentum distributions in 3H and 3He, obtained using phenomenological potentials, as well as the most recent high-quality chiral nucleon-nucleon potentials, with and without three-nucleon force. Three-nucleon interaction contributions as well as chiral order-by-order convergence are briefly discussed. An outlook for further studies is also presented.
