Three-nucleon bound states with phenomenological nonlocal nucleon-nucleon interactions

Longer and shorter range nonlocal nucleon-nucleon (NN) interactions are constructed which fit the NN phase shifts with high accuracy, take into account the charge symmetry and charge independence breaking, and reproduce the triton and He-3 binding energies. The nonlocal potential model gives a better simultaneous agreement of the triton and He-3 binding energies than the conventional NN interaction models with a properly normalized 3N force.
