Abstract

We present a systematic analysis of the nuclear two- and three-body short-range correlations and their relations to the zero-energy eigenstates of the Schrödinger equation. To this end we analyze the doublet and triplet coupled-cluster amplitudes in the high momentum limit, and show that they obey universal equations independent of the number of nucleons and their state. Furthermore, we find that these coupled-cluster amplitudes coincide with the zero-energy Bloch-Horowitz operator. These results illuminate the relations between the nuclear many-body theory and the generalized contact formalism, introduced to describe the nuclear two-body short range correlations, and they might also be helpful for general coupled-cluster computations as the asymptotic part of the amplitudes is given and shown to be universal.
