Abstract

The continuous confinement of quantum systems can be described by means of the dd-method, where the dimension dd is taken as a continuous parameter. In this work we describe in detail how this method can be used to obtain the root mean square radii for a squeezed three-body system. These observables are used to investigate the disappearance of the Efimov states around the two-body threshold during a progressive confinement of the system from three to two dimensions. We illustrate how the disappearance takes place through the loss of one of the particles, whereas the other two remain bound.
