THE BEHAVIOR OF THE PHASE-SHIFT IN THE BAKAMJIAN-THOMAS THEORY

The behavior of the phase-shift of the Bakamjian-Thomas theory and its relationwith the phenomenological nuclear force V=V_RiV_I at high energy are explored.Two limits are obtained:It is found that the repulsive core with a sharp outer edge may induce a characteris-tic oscillation of Re δ₁,and Im δ₁ is sensitive to V₁.The conclusion is that the analy-sis of the phase-shift extending to higher energy is relevant in determining therepulsive core and the imaginary part of the nuclear force.
