“…It indeed turned out to be very hard to 'work out' the nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction in nuclei in a fundamental way, and a more feasible and physically-motivated approach is to compute instead an 'effective' or 'renormalized' nucleon-nucleon interaction. After I (TTSK) arrived Princeton, Gerry asked me to study Brueckner theory [1], which was a new and difficult subject for me at that time. I am still indebted to Chun-Wa for helping me greatly in learning the theory, which was originally designed for nuclear matter but which Gerry intended to apply to finite nuclei in a shell model approach.…”

“…NN interactions are short-ranged as is the G-matrix interaction. In the 1960s it was found mainly in Copenhagen (led by Bohr and Mottelson) that to describe empirical nuclear properties we need also a long-range effective P 2 -force of the form [1,8]…”

“…We remember him and our times together very well, and here we shall review briefly two subjects, 'core polarization' and 'Brown-Rho scaling', on which we have collaborated extensively over the years. Before doing so, we think we should first describe a recent book project [1] we worked on together:…”

Core-polarization (CP) and Brown-Rho (BR) scaling were among Gerry's most favorite topics. In this contribution, we will discuss some of the early history as well as more recent work associated with these two fascinating phenomena. I (TTSK) will begin with some recollections of Princeton, where I met Gerry for the first time in 1964 and worked as his postdoc. Core polarization was in fact the first topic he assigned to me. JWH started working with Gerry at Stony Brook from 2003 and was Gerry's last student in nuclear physics. We three had teamed up well, working closely on both CP and BR scaling, particularly on the latter's connection to the anomalously-long beta-decay lifetime of carbon-14. We shall here briefly review these topics, including a recently developed new Brown-Rho scaling based on a Skyrmion half-Skyrmion two-phase model. PACS numbers:

“…in the Nijmegen database [1]. Below the pion production threshold, the notion of the NN potential (either in the coordinate space or in the momentum space) is useful in the sense that it can be used not only to describe the two-body system but also to study the nuclear many-body problems through ab-initio calculations [2].…”
