We have set h = c = 1, and denoted by e the absolute value of the electronic charge, G the renormalized pseudoscalar rrN coupling constant, M the nucleon m a s s . . . The meson propagator is defined by A~(p) = 1/(pZ-#2+ie). We adopt the conventions of Schweber 17) for the space-time metric (g0o = - g l l = 1) and the Dirac matrices (7o = fl, 7 = fl~, 75 = 7 o 7 1 7 2 7 3 ) • Only the expression ofj~,(q) in the non-relativistic limit: E1 ~ M, e t c . . , is of interest to us.

where the radial range parameter L is given by L = [ / ~ 2 - q 2 z ( l - z ) ] ~t. It reduces to #, the inverse meson Compton wavelength, for a real photon (q2 = 0). Let us recall that the renormalization, due to radiative effects, of the mesonnucleon and meson-photon vertices appearing in the process of fig. 1 has a negligible effect. This is because the maximum kinetic energy of the nucleons inside the nucleus is comparable to the meson mass. On the other hand, the difference between the renormalized and bare meson propagators is given by a weighted integral of the bare propagator over the pion mass spectrum, extending from 3# to infinity. Propagator renormalization affects therefore the short range part of the interaction energy. We shall verify in the numerical applications of sect. 5 that its effect is negligible. For

the same reason, contributions from multimeson exchange or from exchange of pion resonances (p . . . . ) should have a minor role too. Let us now turn to the nucleonic interaction energy, associated with the four graphs in fig. 2. The diagrams where the initial nucleons interact with the photon lead to a current which is hermitian conjugate of the one where the interaction with the photon is on the final nucleons. Furthermore the process (b) of fig. 2 is deduced simply from the process (a) through permutation of the coordinates of the initial nucleons and the final nucleons. We therefore consider only the current j(ua)(q) associated to the process (a) eG 2

where the nucleon propagator is defined as S~(p)= (Y "P-M+i~) -1. We take for the nucleon form factors the values Fz = 0 and F t = (1 + % ) / 2 corresponding to a bare nucleon. This is consistent with the order of the perturbation expansion considered. If j~b),j(u°) and j(d) denote the currents associated with the remaining graphs in fig. 2, and ./J(q) = *'t*i(a)_{_j(b) q-j,;(¢)-rj," ;(d), one can already verify that the sum of./~(q) andjuN(q) satisfies the differential charge conservation law

(10)
The matrix element in configuration space of the interaction energy H (a), associated to j(a)(q), is obtained by a procedure similar to the one used above. The non-relativistic limit is again considered. The product of the nucleon and meson propagators appearing in eq. (9) is written in the form

We substitute then these results into eq. (9) for the current j(a)(q) and use eq. (4) to derive the matrix element of H (") in configuration space. To simplify the equations we have made three reasonable approximations.

M. CHEMTOB
(i) The terms O(q2), proportional to the second derivative of the external field, are ignored. (ii) The non-local terms are dropped. This amounts to keep the terms depending only on the m o m e n t u m variable s. (iii) In the argument of the exponential in eq. (4), the center-of-mass m o m e n t u m P = Pl+P2 is neglected with respect to the relative m o m e n t u m p = ½(Pl-P2). This restriction makes the matrix element diagonal with respect to the center-ofmass coordinate. With these approximations, we get

We recall that the contribution from the remaining processes in fig. 2 are readily inferred from the above result. The expression of the nucleonic interaction energy is clearly rather complicated• The reason is that in the 75 model, the relativistic effects due to nucleon recoil and negative energy states are mixed up with more important effects such as the propagation of rcN isobars and the three-field rcN 7 point interaction• The static model separates naturally these effects. This we show below. 2.2. NON-RELATIVISTIC MODEL In this treatment, the dynamics of the system of two nucleons with l a b e l s j ( j = 1, 2) interacting with the electromagnetic field a(r) and the pion field ~ ( r ) is considered from the outset in the non-relativistic limit. One starts from the following Hamiltonian 18):

The current j(r) is given by j(r) = j~(r)+J~N(r)-kjs(r). It contains the mesonic current, the nucleonic current and the three-field interaction current which read

Let us consider the effect of each of these three currents. We restrict to the onemeson exchange approximation, with a point nN coupling: p(x-xj) = 6(x-xj). The currents j =(r) and j=N(r) lead to the processes pictured by the Feynman diagrams of figs. 1 and 3 respectively. The rules for calculating their contributions are similar to those of the relativistic theories 19). Let H=(xl, x2) and H=~(xl, x2) denote their contributions to the diagonal matrix elements in configuration space of the interaction energy. The non-diagonal matrix elements vanish. For the mesonic energy H=(xl, x2), one finds a result identical to that of the relativistic model, given by equation (8). The result for H=N(xl, x2) is the following:
e#(G) z H~N(xl, x2) = 4n ~ (x(1)× x(Z))a[-(a 1 • r)(a2" a(x2))+ (a 1 • a(x,))(a2" r)] X (1"~ ~ )

Miyazawa developed a convenient method to handle these processes 7,19), The formalism is particularly simple when one considers only the isovector part of the nucleon current.

where ~p and 7n are the intrinsic magnetic moments of the proton and neutron and
f(o)/f is the ratio of bare to physical nN pseudovector coupling constants (f/# = G/2M). The isoscalar part would involve (?p+?.) which is a factor 5 smaller than (Tp--?n)" Furthermore this part cannot excite the (23-,-~) resonance. It is therefore well justified to keep only the isovector part of the nucleon current. Let 7% denote the state of a physical nucleon and 7Jk,(-)j the outgoing state of a physical nucleon+ one meson with momentum k, isospin j. The nN~ scattering amplitude is found by taking the matrix element of the current (20) between these states. Now this matrix element is clearly related to the amplitude for the scattering of a pion, from state (k',f) to state (k,j) by a nucleon

To close this discussion based on the static model, we consider the effect due to nucleon recoil• It can be introduced in the static model in a phenomenological way 21) by adding to the unperturbed Hamiltonian H o the kinetic energy term: (p21+p~)/2M. The adiabatic approximation is meaningful here only for the time-ordered graphs of fig. 6. We restrict therefore to these diagrams. Their contribution to the interaction

3. Interaction magnetic moment The nuclear Hamiltonian Hx, associated to the interaction currents, is given by the sum over all distinct pairs of nucleons of the potentials H,j considered in the previous section Hx = ~. H, a • (29) i
Clearly, Hx must be added to the ordinary one-body potential. In this connection, let us emphasize two other important points. (i) The Siegert theorem z2) indicates that the electric multipole moments and therefore the nuclear charge density are not affected by the interaction currents. The independence of the mesonic energy H = (cf. eq. (8)) with respect to the scalar component ao(x) verifies this result. This is not however the case for the nucleonic energy (cf. eq. (13)). (ii) The individual form factors of the nucleon are altered when the nucleon is immersed in the nuclear matter. This is referred to as the exclusion principle effect 12). The modification is due to the exclusion of nucleon intermediate states occupied in the nucleus, in the one-body mesonic current process. Being related to violation of Pauli principle in intermediate states, this effect is exactly compensated by the twobody mesonic current process. We shall discuss its contribution in sect. 5. We consider in this section the interaction dipole magnetic moment. Let us first sketch the main results of the phenomenological approach, since it allows a convenient classification of the various operational forms for this moment. To the N N potential having a scalar and tensor part
V = Z [W+BP~j+MpM+HPTjpM]V¢(r) +*i "*JS,iVT(r),
(30)

the phenomenological theory associates, without arbitrariness, the Sachs interaction moment
Jgs = ½ie ~. "c3(i)--z3(J) (r x R)[(M + HPS)V¢(r)P~ + 2Sii Vv(r)P,~], ~
(31)
where the tensor operator is defined as S~i : 3(hi" P)(aj" P)- (a~. aj) and the centerof-mass and relative coordinates associated to q, r 2 are denoted by R, r. The main source of ambiguity of the phenomenological approach is due to the fact that any arbitrary function of V × a(r) can be introduced in the nuclear Hamiltonian without affecting its invariance by the gauge transformation. It is known however that the theory is irleonsistent without the introduction of these solenoidal

2 3 ) . Twelve distinct forms are possible for the solenoidal moments (also called spin-exchange moments) if they are asked to (i) transform as axial vectors, (ii) be symmetrical under permutations of two particles, (iii) change sign under time reversal and (iv) be invariant under space translations and velocity-independent. The following list follows closely the classification of Foldy and Berger 4): terms

Note that only the terms J/g2, rig4, JCga and ~ ( l o can be associated to the charge exchange part (i.e. the part [rx(i)zx(j)+~y(i)ry(j)] ) of the N N potential2). All the other terms, except dg s and ~g6, are allowed if the interaction moments are to be proportional to any part of the NN potential. The mesic approach predicts unique expressions for the radial dependencesf~(r). To obtain these functions, it is sufficient to consider the results of the previous section in the case of a uniform magnetic field Of', and take for the vector potential a(r) = k3~ X r. The magnetic moment is then obtained by identifying the energy H x to -~//¢ • o~t'. We shall give no detail of this derivation here, since the calculations are lengthy but not difficult. One first finds that the Sachs moment is present in the mesonic current, given by eq. (8). Its expression is similar to eq. (31), with the OPEP replacing the N N in-

with x = #r. Note that the same relation holds also for the two-pion exchange potential 24). Apart from this term, the results of the relativistic and non-relativistic models differ. The mesonic current which is common to both models, has non-translationally invariant terms. These terms are however compensated by corresponding ones coming from the currentj"N(r) (cf. eq. (19)). Furthermore, the nucleonic interaction energy obtained in the relativistic model (cir. eq. (13)) is non-diagonal in configuration space; so that its magnetic moments cannot be included in the classification given above. For these reasons, we shall restrict from now on to the expressions of the nonrelativistic model. Contributions (8) and (19) of the mesonic current j~(r) and the interaction current j~N(r) are grouped together in a single term. This term is called mesonic current (j~N(r) is, in fact, often classified as a mesonic current2°).) The contributions from eqs. (25) and (27) are respectively identified as isovector-nucleonic and nucleonic recoil currents. Let us now give the results in terms of the non-zero radial functions f , ( r ) .

For the sake of completeness, we finally consider the interaction moments due to velocity-dependent N N potentials. We restrict to the spin-orbit force, since its existence is well confirmed by two-body scattering data, vLS : E VLs(r)|" S. i
The relative orbital momentum is defined by l = 1(r2-r2)× ( P l - P 2 ) , and S = ½(a~+a2). To obtain the electromagnetic interaction one makes the standard transformation p ~ p - e½(1 + 2"3) tI (r).

In the numerical applications of the next sections, we shall use the spin-orbit part of the Hamada-Johnston potential 25). 4. Magnetic moments of odd-nuclei
In this section, we calculate the interaction magnetic moments for the class of oddnuclei described by a core saturated in t h e j j coupling sense + one valence nucleon. In the extreme single-particle shell model (Schmidt model) the ground-state wave function ~jm is the antisymmetric product of the wave functions of the valence particle ~bjmand of the core ~0 ~'ljm = I// jm It10 .

To evaluate the two-body matrix elements of the interaction magnetic moments, it is convenient to introduce the center-of-mass and relative coordinates associated to nucleons i and j.

where the operators ~E~1 stand for O~"1 = [yE,J(~) x yrx~(/~)lEml. Some general properties of the two-body interaction moments are worth to mention. These are of great help to understand the numbers we give in the following section. One remarks from eqs. (34), (35)and (36)that the strengths of the moments associated to the three types of interaction currents are quite different. It is clear that the moments of mesonic origin are predominant. The selection rules they obey are also simply deduced from the formulae in (48). With the help of (43) one verifies that the contribution from an occupied spin-orbit doublet in the core vanishes if the spin operator has 2= = 2. This is the case of the Sachs moment associated to the tensor potential. It can also be proven that the moments proportional to [(a~-t-a~)'~P-(ai+_aj)/3] give no contribution to s~ nuclei.

Column labelled "total" is the sum of the contribution from the mesonic (column (a)), nucleonic (column (b)) and nucleonic recoil (column (c)) moments. Column (d) gives the contribution from the two-body spin-orbit force. The Schmidt moment, PSehrnidt, is corrected (for odd-proton nuclei) by the 0.04 n.m. reduction of the intrinsic moment of relativistic origin (cf. ref. 12)]. Column labelled Ppert gives the perturbative correction, as calculated in refs. a0,31), to the one-body moment.

5. Discussion of the results
The numerical evaluation of the formulae derived in the previous section was made with radial functions of the harmonic oscillator well. The parameter e = (M~o/h)~ was defined in such a way so as to fit the nuclear radius. Our results are given in tables l(a) and l(b) for odd-neutron and odd-proton nuclei respectively. Let us mention here that a calculation of the interaction moments, using the shell model was made by Ichimura and Yazaki 16) for nuclei 15N, 170 and 4aca. Our values however differ on certain points f r o m theirs, for a reason we do not understand clearly. Inspection of table 1 suggests immediately that the interaction moments are not the predominant correction. This correction causes essentially a small shift of both Schmidt lines; upwards for odd-proton nuclei and downwards for odd-neutron nuclei. A few satisfying points are however worth to mention. (i) The very small correction for Z°TPb ( - 0 . 0 7 3 n.m.) as compared to the much larger one for 2°9Bi (0.50 n.m.), both going in the right direction. (ii) The interaction moments for d~ nuclei, like arC1, 39K and 199Au are of the same order of magnitude as the Schmidt moments. (iii) We get corrections equal to - 0 . 1 7 n.m. and +0.14 n.m. for 3He and 3H respectively if these nuclei are described by an s~ configuration of the shell model with e ~ 0.74 f m It should be recalled here that the one-body magnetic m o m e n t is very sensitive to configuration mixing. This is indicated by the numerous calculations using improved ground state nuclear wave functions 28- 33). The same conclusion is also suggested by the phenomenological analysis of Blin-Stoyle 34) where the matrix elements of the one-body m o m e n t are determined from the matrix elements of the axialvector interaction in the associated beta-decay processes. To have an idea of the overall agreement with experiment, we give in table 1 the Schmidt values and the perturbation corrections to the one-body moment, taken from refs. 30, 31). The magnetic m o m e n t due to the two-body spin-orbit interaction is also shown in table 1. It can be roughly parametrized for odd-proton nuclei by the formula, +~(2j+l)/(2j+2), for j = l _ ½ with ~ ~ 0.05. This is approximately ~ of the contribution f r o m the one-body spin-orbit force 28), ~ ~ 0.25. For odd-neutron nuclei, the m o m e n t is slightly smaller but of opposite sign, ~ ~ - 0 . 0 3 . The interaction moments depend sensitively on the range chosen for the nuclear well. (In fact, the values adopted for the oscillator parameter c~ are, for light nuclei, slightly smaller than those deduced from the empirical formula: h a ) ~ 40 A -~ MeV, i.e. c~ ~ 0.982 A -"~ f m - a . ) This is particularly true for the m o m e n t associated to the function fz(r) in the mesonic current (cf. eq. (34)): the reason is that this function changes sign in the nuclear internal region. To gain a quantitative estimate of this effect and to illustrate the remark relative to short range effects mentioned in sect. 2. l, we plotted in fig. 7 the mesonic m o m e n t of iv O as a function of the radial

range parameter. Note the cancellation of the m o m e n t between 0 and/~ (# ~ 0.707 fro-x), which reflects the effect of compensation relative to f2(r). It is also seen on this figure that when the range decreases from/~-1 to (3p)-1, the m o m e n t is reduced by a factor ~ 10. Another striking feature of the interaction moments is their relative independence with respect to the mass number A 14,~5,22). This is the result of two competing effects when A increases. Then, the number of possible interactions between the valence nucleon and the core nucleons increases, but the ratio of the range of the operators, which stays constant ~ ro, to the nuclear radius ~ ro A'r, decreases.

Fig. 7. Variation of the mesonic magnetic moment (in n.m.) of xTOwith the radial range parameter. # is the inverse meson Compton wave length. this reason, the interaction moments should not change appreciably when two nucleons of charge opposite to that of the valence nucleon are added to the core. We find that the difference of the moments between 39K and 41K and between 113In and l~SIn is just + 0.043 and - 0 . 0 0 4 n.m. The modification could however be important when the two nucleons have the same charge as the valence nucleon, or as in the case of 85Rb and 87Rb, when the angular m o m e n t u m of the nucleus changes its value. The independence with respect to the mass number suggests also that the limit where the core of the odd nucleus is quantized in an infinite volume (i.e. the Fermigas model) may not be too unrealistic an approximation for the process considered here. Let us search for the effective one-body operators associated to the interaction moments. Take, for example, the moments proportional to (ai++_aj) in the case of an ls saturated core (i.e. with L = 0, S = 0), and neglect antisymmetrization

which indicates the existence of an average field 6g~ s affecting the intrinsic m o m e n t of the valence nucleon. In the exchange terms, the spin operator s would be multiplied by a non-local operator. For the m o m e n t s of the type: [ ( a ~ + a j ) - ? P - ( a ~ + a j ) / 3 ] , the average one-body potential contains both s and the operator (s.p)p, involving the m o m e n t u m p of the valence nucleon. One can also prove that the Sachs moment, associated to the central N N potential, has an average effect proportional to the orbital m o m e n t u m 3gll 35).

Lower figures correspond to the introduction of a hard core cut-off radius: r e = 0.485 fm. The correction 6g"s to the spin gyromagnetic ratio is associated to the exclusion principle effect.
In table 2, we give for 170, 41Ca, 15N and 39K the values of fig, and 6gs due to the dominant interaction moments: the Sachs m o m e n t and the mesonic spin-exchange m o m e n t associated to the functionf2(r) in eq. (34). We also show the effect of a hard core in the radial dependences, introduced by means of a cut-off radius, r e ~ 0.485 fm. Note that (i) 6g, and bgs remain practically constant for t h e j = l+_½ cases, but they vary appreciably from one case to the other and (ii) the effect of the hard core is most effective for 6gs. The corresponding values for an infinite nucleus are rather close. For a Fermi m o m e n t u m k v ~ 1.25 fm -1, we find fig, ~ 0.10 and 6g~ ~ 0.13. If the central OPE potential is replaced by some phenomenologicM N N potential the actual values of 6g, would be multiplied by a factor ~ 3. This remark raises, of course, the important question concerning the renormalization of interaction currents in nuclear matter as). Consider finally the exclusion principle effect. It is associated to the function f2(r) occurring in eq. (37). In the Fermi-gas model, previous calculations 6,12) give

In the last column of table 2, we show the corresponding values of fig" obtained with the shell model. The comparison of fg~ with figs indicates clearly how the exclusion principle effect is strongly compensated by the moment associated to the three-field zrN7 interaction. 6. Perturbative corrections In this section we evaluate the perturbative corrections to the mesonic moments of nuclei 15N, 39K, 170 and 41Ca. We restrict to the first-order corrections to the ground state wave functions, represented by the diagrams in fig. 8. Their contribution

This result refers to a particle configuration. For a hole configuration, the first term is multiplied by ( - ) ~ + 1 and the second term by ( - ) 4 , provided we interchange in eq. (52) the roles o f p and h. The numerical values we find for this correction are given in table 3. The secondorder perturbation corrections to the one-body moment, evaluated in ref. 31), are also shown in this table. Both calculations use the Kallio-Kolltveit potential for V. Since we are merely interested here in orders of magnitude, a further restriction was made which saves a lot of computing time. It consisted to impose a limiting value to the relative orbital momentum l < 2, in the two-body matrix elements of the interaction moments. TABLE 3

It is seen from table 3 that, except for ISN, corrections are 6 % to 13 % of the moments obtained in the zero-order approximation. They are of opposite sign for nuclei ~70 and 39K. G o o d quantitative agreement with experimental value is reached for the moment of 15N. The agreement is however less good for 170 and 41Ca, and remains poor for 39K. 7. Conclusions The main conclusions of this work are that (i) the nuclear interaction currents obtained in the meson-theoretical approach have expressions which lend themselves to practical calculations, (ii) their effect on nuclear static magnetic moments is generally much too small to fill the gap between the Schmidt values and experiment, but it is not intrinsically weak. This suggests to look for their role in dynamic properties of nuclei, such as 7 transitions, electron scattering, etc. I am grateful to Dr. V. Gillet for his constant criticisms and suggestions and to Dr. M. Rho for numerous comments. I have greatly benefited from discussions with Drs. D. Bessis, R. Stora and C. W. Wong whom I want to thank. I am also grateful to Mrs. N. Tichit for her efficient help in the numerical part of this work.
