The neglect of the neutron-proton interaction is the major weakness of the pairing force theory. This interaction is just as strong as that between a pair of like nucleons. In fact in the T=0 state is stronger.( A.M. Lane, Nuclear Theory, Benjamin 1964)
Later this statement received support by numerical estimates of np pairing gap in nuclear matter with realistic interactions ( 8-12 MeV).(for a review see U. Lombardo, Superfluidity in nuclear matter, World Sci. 1999,Ed. M.Baldo)
Despite the numerical predictions by A. Goodman (PRC 60,1999), no clear evidence for n-p pairing has so far been found in nuclei.
Recently, first Bertsch et al. (PRC 2010) and later Sagawa et al. (Phys.Scr. 2016) studied the competion between spin triplet and spin singlet pair correlations in nuclei Bertsch predicted a transition from spin singlet (nn) to spin triplet (np) pairing in large N=Z nuclei (A=130-140) . But the suppression of the np pairing in nuclei has not yet been completely understood. Possible candidates are many body effects, including self-energy and core polarization. It is already established the role of self-energy effects (effective mass and quasi-particle strength).The effects of core polarization have been predicted for nn and pp pairing (S=0,T=1) within the induced interaction theory either in nuclei ( Milano group) and in nuclear matter(Catania-Orsay Coll.). The extension of such analysis to np pairing is now on the way.

Two main advantages: The constant gap approximation is a good approximation in the case of weak coupling( Δ≪�F ) . In the strong coupling limit it can be applied if w is small enough.The window gap equation makes it more unstandable the role of off-diagonal matrix elements of the pairing interaction vs. , in particular

Numerical procedure
For w<<kf we can assume Δ(k) Δ(kf) and the gap eqs. go over into a coupledsystem of (non-linear) algebraic equations:
where E2(k)= (�k f) � 2 + () ≡ (�k f) � 2 + . It can be numericallysolved along with equations for the renormalized interaction by means of linearization and iteration.

Conclusions:
There is a general consensus that self-energy corrections conspire againstall kinds of pair correlations, including the neutron proton 3SD1 pairing.In nuclear matter they severely reduce the pairing gaps and shink the pairing domain to lower densities, typical of nuclear surface
The vertex corrections could provide a screening to the pair interactionand could be good candidates to solve the puzzle of the missing neutron-protongaps in nuclei . We found in fact that , in the deuteron channel, they have a repulsive effect in contrast with what happens in the case of 1S0 channel. However we found a negligible effect in the approximation adopted in the present calcs.
Approaches in finite nuclei attribute the missing np pairing to the spin-orbit splittingbut for N=Z very heavy nuclei a crossover from nn (pp) pairing to np pairing is predicted . This result is consistent with the present calculation.
