Nucleon-nucleon scattering above the pion production threshold

  • 1. University of British Columbia, TRIUMF, Vancouver V6T 1W5, Canada

Description

Starting from a simple nonrelativistic field theory of pions and nucleons, we derive linear integral equations coupling amplitudes of baryon number equal two systems. These equations guarantee two- and three-body unitarity above the threshold for single pion production, and include explicitly the coupling of the NN to (e.g.) NΔ and πd channels. The relationship of this approach to earlier schemes is discussed
