Spectroscopic basis for short-range three-nucleon forces

We introduce a spectroscopic basis for the subleading contact three-nucleon forces, which allows one to classify these interactions according to the total angular momentum and parity quantum numbers in a transparent way. Using this new basis, we explore the sensitivity of nucleon-deuteron observables to the three-nucleon short-range interactions. The low dimensionality of the variable-parameter space in the spectroscopic basis allows us to build a simple nucleon-deuteron scattering emulator using radial basis function interpolation. We perform exploratory fits of the subleading contact three-nucleon interactions and demonstrate that 9 of 13 low-energy constants can be reliably determined from elastic nucleon-deuteron scattering data.

Subleading D-like Three-Nucleon Interactions

We consider subleading contributions to the three-nucleon force from tree-level diagrams involving a single-pion exchange and a contact interaction between two nucleons, which appear at fifth order in the chiral expansion. We show that the corresponding D-like three-nucleon potential depends on 16 low-energy constants, which need to be determined from few-body data. Assuming that their numerical values are governed by the intermediate Δ(1232) excitation mechanism, the considered three-nucleon force can be approximated using 4 low-energy constants that parametrize the short-range nucleon-nucleon to nucleon-Δ transition amplitude.
