Description

The chiral two-pion exchange component of the long-range pp interaction is studied in an energy-dependent partial-wave analysis. We demonstrate its presence and importance and determine the chiral parameters ci (i=1,thinsp3,thinsp4 ). The values agree well with those obtained from pion-nucleon amplitudes. copyright 1999 The American Physical Society
