Abstract: In this paper, we establish a $C^{1,alpha}$-regularity theorem for almost-minimizers of the functional $mathcal{F}_{varepsilon,gamma}=P-gamma{P}_{varepsilon}$, where $gammain(0,1)$ and $P_{varepsilon}$ is a nonlocal energy converging to the perimeter as $varepsilon$ vanishes. Our theorem provides a criterion for $C^{1,alpha}$-regularity at a point of the boundary which is uniform as the parameter $varepsilon$ goes to $0$. As a consequence we obtain that volume-constrained minimizers of $mathcal{F}_{varepsilon,gamma}$ are balls for any $varepsilon$ small enough. For small $varepsilon$, this minimization problem corresponds to the large mass regime for a Gamow-type problem where the nonlocal repulsive term is given by an integrable kernel $G$ with sufficiently fast decay at infinity.
