Efimov physics: a review

P Naidon, S Endo - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
This article reviews theoretical and experimental advances in Efimov physics, an array of
quantum few-body and many-body phenomena arising for particles interacting via short …

Modern theory of nuclear forces

E Epelbaum, HW Hammer, UG Meißner - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2009 - APS
Effective field theory allows for a systematic and model-independent derivation of the forces
between nucleons in harmony with the symmetries of quantum chromodynamics. The …

Universal few-body physics and cluster formation

CH Greene, P Giannakeas, J Pérez-Ríos - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2017 - APS
A recent rejuvenation of experimental and theoretical interest in the physics of few-body
systems has provided deep, fundamental insights into a broad range of problems. Few-body …

Few-body physics with ultracold atomic and molecular systems in traps

D Blume - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
Few-body physics has played a prominent role in atomic, molecular and nuclear physics
since the early days of quantum mechanics. It is now possible—thanks to tremendous …

Signatures of universal four-body phenomena and their relation to the Efimov effect

J von Stecher, JP D'Incao, CH Greene - Nature Physics, 2009 - nature.com
The problem of three interacting quantal bodies, in its various guises, seems deceptively
simple, but it has also provided striking surprises, such as the Efimov effect,, which was …

Evidence for universal four-body states tied to an Efimov trimer

F Ferlaino, S Knoop, M Berninger, W Harm, JP D'incao… - Physical review …, 2009 - APS
We report on the measurement of four-body recombination rate coefficients in an atomic gas.
Our results obtained with an ultracold sample of cesium atoms at negative scattering lengths …

Universal properties of the four-body system with large scattering length

HW Hammer, L Platter - The European Physical Journal A, 2007 - Springer
Few-body systems with large scattering length have universal properties that do not depend
on the details of their interactions at short distances. We study the universal bound-state …

Efimov resonances in ultracold quantum gases

F Ferlaino, A Zenesini, M Berninger, B Huang… - Few-Body Systems, 2011 - Springer
Ultracold atomic gases have developed into prime systems for experimental studies of
Efimov three-body physics and related few-body phenomena, which occur in the universal …

Nuclear physics around the unitarity limit

S König, HW Grießhammer, HW Hammer, U van Kolck - Physical review letters, 2017 - APS
We argue that many features of the structure of nuclei emerge from a strictly perturbative
expansion around the unitarity limit, where the two-nucleon S waves have bound states at …
