We consider a system of three particles in dimension 4 and higher interacting via short-range potentials, where the two-body Hamiltonians have a virtual level at the bottom of the essential spectrum. In dimensions 2 (in case of fermions)…
The Efimov effect in heteronuclear cold atomic systems is experimentally more easily accessible than the Efimov effect for identical atoms, because of the potentially smaller scaling factor. We focus on the case of two or three heavy…

We investigate one-dimensional three-body systems composed of two identical bosons and one imbalanced atom (impurity) with two-body and three-body zero-range interactions. For the case in the absence of three-body interaction, we give a…
We give a detailed and self-contained description of a recently developed theoretical and numerical method for the simulation of three identical bosonic alkali-metal atoms near a Feshbach resonance, where the Efimov effect is induced. The…
Recent cold atom experiments report a surprising universal scaling of the first Efimov resonance position a_{-}^1 by the two-body van der Waals length r_{vdW}. The ratio C=-a_{-}^1/r_{vdW}=8.5~9.5 for identical particles appears to be a…
The Efimov effect is an intriguing three-body quantum phenomenon. Searching for Efimov states within the realms of nuclear and hadronic physics presents a challenge due to the inherent inability of natural physical systems to exhibit…
Small weakly-bound droplets determine a number of properties of ultracold Bose and Fermi gases. For example, Efimov trimers near the atom-atom-atom and atom-dimer thresholds lead to enhanced losses from bosonic clouds. Generalizations to…
Whether the Efimov effect is possible, in principle, for p-wave or higher partial-wave interactions is a fundamental question. Recently, there has been a claim that three nonrelativistic particles with resonant p-wave interactions exhibit…

Near two-body unitarity, the three-boson system is characterized by an approximate discrete scale invariance manifest in a geometric tower of bound states (the Efimov effect). In the absence of a strong four-body force, the four-boson…
We analyse the recent experiments investigating the low-energy physics of three lithium 6 atoms in different internal states with resonant two-body scattering lengths. All observed features are qualitatively consistent with the expected…
