Abstract. In this work, we construct a series of energy-dependent phase equivalent potentials to a combined, nuclear and electromagnetic in origin of equal range, low momentum central interaction to treat the charged hadronic systems. Since the effect due to charges becomes screened at a certain distance in real situations, we believe it desirable to include the effect of very short-range electromagnetic interaction. It is meant to point out that in such circumstances the effect of the combined potential is habitually inspected within the nuclear realm. We compute the scattering phase shifts and in turn the elastic cross sections via the variable phase approach for potential scattering to examine the merits of our constructed energy-dependent potentials over the earlier proposed central model by one of us. We present some model calculations in support of this.
