Description
Non-commutative field theory is applied to nucleon-nucleon interactions where we assume the spatial coordinates of nucleons do not commute. This assumption leads to the interpretation that nucleons occupy a minimum volume in space which alters our view of NN-interactions. Qualitative descriptions of these interactions are obtained using various approximations.
