  The aim is to compare a few Nucleon-Nucleon (NN) potentials especially
Reid68, Reid68-Day, Reid93, UrbanaV14, ArgonneV18, Nijmegen 93, Nijmegen I and
Nijmegen II. Although these potentials have some likenesses and are almost
phenomenological, they include in general different structures and their own
characteristics. The potentials are constructed in a manner that fit the NN
scattering data or phase shifts and are compared in this way. A high-quality
scale of a potential is that it fits the data with $\chi^{2}/N_{data} \approx
1$, describes well the deuteron properties and gives satisfactory results in
nuclear-structure calculations. However, these scales have some failures. Here,
we first compare many potentials by confronting them with the data. Then, we
try to compare the potential forms by considering the potential structures
directly and therefore regarding their substantial bases somehow. To do so, we
note that since the potentials are written in different schemas, it is
necessary to write them in a unique schema. On the other hand, because three
major terms in the NN interaction are central, tensor and spin-orbit terms; so,
to perform a reduction plan and arrive at a common structure, we choose the
Reid's potential form. Next, we compare the potentials for some states and
address some other related issues as well.
