Short-range correlations in the deuteron: chiral effective field theory, meson-exchange, and phenomenologyAbstract: We study high-momentum distributions and short-range correlation probabilities in the deuteron with a variety of modern potentials based on chiral effective field theory up to fifth order in the chiral expansion. We also consider some conventional (meson-exchange and phenomenological) interactions. We examine our predictions in the context of short-range correlation probabilities as extracted from analyses of inclusive electron scattering data and discuss whether modern interac- tions can be reconciled with the latter.
