Abstract

Resummed-Range Effective Field Theory is the consistent non-relativistic Effective Field Theory of point interactions in systems with large two-body scattering length aa and an effective range r0r_0 large in magnitude but negative. Its leading order is non-perturbative, and its observables depend only on the dimensionless ratio ξ:=2r0/a\xi:=2r_0/a once r0|r_0| is chosen as base unit. This presentation highlights aspects for three identical spinless bosons and adds details to a previous discussion [1]. At leading order, no three-body interaction is needed. A ground state exists only in the range 0.366ξ8.720.366\ldots\ge\xi\ge-8.72\ldots, and excited states display self-similarity and Discrete Scale Invariance, with small corrections for nonzero r0r_0.
