CAN ONE SIMULTANEOUSLY DESCRIBE THE DEUTERON PROPERTIES AND THE NUCLEON-NUCLEON PHASE-SHIFTS IN THE QUARK CLUSTER MODEL

Deuteron properties have been calculated in the framework of the const ituent quark model using a quark-quark interaction which incorporates sigma and pi chiral mesons besides the one-gluon exchange between quar ks. This interaction is able to describe simultaneously the nucleon-nu cleon phase shifts. In contrast with earlier calculations, in which eq uivalent meson potentials between nucleons have been used, this descri ptions includes only interactions between quarks.
