On the Equality of the Proton-Proton and Proton-Neutron Interactions

Abstract

A comparison of the 1S proton-proton interaction and the 1S proton-neutron interaction has been made recently by Breit, Hoisington, Share, and Thaxton. It is the purpose of this letter to add a remark to the subject. With the meson type of potential, [C x e^(-lambda x r)]/r x lambda, a variational calculation has been made of the binding energy of H3 of high accuracy (error <0.1 percent).
