Abstract
If a nuclear lattice is indeed a better representation of nuclear structure than the gas-like IPM, then the fictitious, long-range, mean-field approach to the nuclear force is of course an unnecessary approximation of nucleon-nucleon interactions. Given the known dimensions of nuclei and nucleons, the known dimensions of the nuclear force and the known magnetic dipole properties of both protons and neutrons, it is sensible to ask what the short-range magnetic effects between nucleons might be.
