One-pion exchange 2026-10-18
Although the pion has spin zero, one-pion exchange depends on nucleon spin and isospin and includes a nuclear tensor force. Shorter-range and multiple-nucleon interactions also matter. The scalar Yukawa potential isolates a range mechanism rather than specifying the complete nuclear force.[ref]
