Coarse graining Nuclear Interactions

We consider a coarse graining of NN interactions in coordinate space very much in the spirit of the well known Vlowk approach. To this end we sample the interaction at about the minimal de Broglie wavelength probed by NN scattering below pion production threshold. This amounts to provide a simple delta-shell potential plus the standard OPE potential above 2 fm. The possible simplifications in the Nuclear many body problem are discussed.Comment: Presented by RNP at the Erice School on Nuclear Physics 2011: From Quarks and Gluons to Hadrons and Nuclei, Erice, Sicily (Italy), 16-24 September 2011, 7 pages, 6 figure
