Can long-range nuclear properties Be influenced by short range interactions? A chiral dynamics estimate

Recent experiments and many-body calculations indicate that approximately 20% of the nucleons in medium and heavy nuclei (A≥12) are part of short-range correlated (SRC) primarily neutron-proton (np) pairs. We find that using chiral dynamics to account for the formation of np pairs due to the effects...
