TLDR
In this article, the effect of ϱω and πη mixing on the 1 S 0 NN potential was investigated and it was found that the ϱα contribution dominates and leads to an n-n potential which is more attractive than the p-p potential.

Phenomenological aspects of isospin violation in the nuclear force

TL;DR: In this paper, a one-loop analysis of the isospin-violating πNN coupling constants is performed using chiral perturbation theory, and meson-mixing models and the 3He3H mass difference are also discussed in the context of naturalness.

Relativistic Quantum Mechanics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a propagator theory of Dirac particles, photons, and Klein-Gordon mesons and per-formed a series of calculations designed to illustrate various useful techniques and concepts in electromagnetic, weak, and strong interactions.

Local phenomenological nucleon-nucleon potentials

TL;DR: Hard (infinitely hard) and soft (Yukawa) core potentials have been fit to Yale and Livermore phase parameters and low-energy data as discussed by the authors, and it is found that neither the short-range behavior of the potentials nor the central-to-tensor ratio in the 3 S 1 - 3 D 1 state is well determined by the data.

Chiral SU ( 3 ) ⊗ SU ( 3 ) as a Symmetry of the Strong Interactions

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the strong interactions are almost invariant under the group of pseudoscalar octet, i.e., the octet is realized by eight Goldstone bosons.

Departures from the Eightfold Way: Theory of Strong Interaction Symmetry Breakdown

Abstract: We consider the three kinds of departure from exact unitary symmetry: medium-strong interactions which leave only isospin and hypercharge as good symmetries, electromagnetism, and weak interactions. We postulate the existence of an octet of scalar mesons that give the possibility of symmetry-breaking tadpole diagrams. Our fundamental dynamical assumption---that symmetry-violating processes are dominated by symmetry-breaking tadpole diagrams---gives an immediate explanation of the success of two empirical laws: the Gell-Mann-Okubo mass formulas and the nonleptonic $\ensuremath{\Delta}I=\frac{1}{2}$ rules. Moreover, including tadpole diagrams and some other electromagnetic corrections, we calculate the six electromagnetic mass splittings of mesons and baryons in terms of a single unknown parameter correctly to within 0.5 MeV.
