Abstract

. Meson-exchange diagrams following from a Lagrangian with off-shell meson-nucleon couplings are compared with those generated from conventional dynamics. The off-shell interactions can be transformed away with the help of a nucleon field redefinition. Contributions to the nucleon-nucleon and three-nucleon potentials and nonminimal contact electromagnetic meson-exchange currents are discussed, mostly for the important case of scalar meson exchange.
