Present Status of the Nuclear Three-Body Problem
Rev. Mod. Phys. 41, 497 – Published 1 July, 1969
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1103/RevModPhys.41.497
Abstract
The emphasis in this review is on the extent to which theoretical studies have accounted for the empirical data on the three-nucleon systems. The ground, excited, and continuum states of the nuclear three-body systems are discussed, and a summary is given of the interpretation of the electromagnetic- and weak-interaction properties.
