Deuteron properties in the translation-invariant shell model with Gaussian interactions

The basis of the translation invariant shell model is used to construct the ground-state wave function of deuteron. The interactions used consist of central, tensor, spin orbit and quadratic spin orbit terms. The parameters of these interactions are so chosen in such a way that they represent the long-range attraction and the short-range repulsion of the nucleon-nucleon interaction and to reproduce good agreement between the calculated values of the deuteron binding energy, root mean-square radius, D-state probability, magnetic dipole moment and electric quadrupole moment and the corresponding experimental values (Authors)
