Restoration of rotational invariance of bound states on the light front
We study bound states in a model with scalar nucleons interacting via an
exchanged scalar meson using the Hamiltonian formalism on the light front. In
this approach manifest rotational invariance is broken when the Fock space is
truncated. By considering an effective Hamiltonian that takes into account two
meson exchanges, we find that this breaking of rotational invariance is
decreased from that which occurs when only one meson exchange is included. The
best improvement occurs when the states are weakly bound.Comment: 20 pages, 6 figures, uses feynMF; changed typos, clarified use of
