We investigate low-lying bound states of the neutron-rich nucleus ${}^{15}$B by assuming it is a three-body system made of an inert core ${}^{13}$B and two valence neutrons. The three-body wave functions are obtained using the Faddeev…
We show that the contributions of three-quasiparticle interactions to normal Fermi systems at low energies and temperatures are suppressed by n_q/n compared to two-body interactions, where n_q is the density of excited or added…
Stable bound quantum states are ubiquitous in nature. Mostly, they result from the interaction of only pairs of particles, so called two-body interactions, even when large complex many-particle structures are formed. We show that…
Two-component fermions are known to behave like a gas of molecules in the limit of Bose-Einstein condensation of diatomic pairs tightly bound with zero-range interactions. We discover that the formation of cluster states occurs when the…
In a sufficiently hot and dense astrophysical environment the rate of the triple-alpha (3alpha) reaction can increase greatly over the value appropriate for helium burning stars owing to hadronically induced de-excitation of the Hoyle…

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 progress in cooling, trapping, and manipulating ultracold…
Recent ab initio lattice studies have found that the interactions between alpha particles (4He nuclei) are sensitive to seemingly minor details of the nucleon-nucleon force such as interaction locality. In order to uncover the essential…
Cold atoms embedded in a degenerate Fermi system interact via a fermionic analog of the Casimir force, which is an attraction of a -1/r form at distances shorter than the Fermi wavelength. Interestingly, the hydrogenic two-body bound states…

It is often assumed that few- and many-body systems can be accurately described by considering only pairwise two-body interactions of the constituents. We illustrate that three- and higher-body forces enter naturally in effective field…
Nucleonic matter displays a quantum liquid structure, but in some cases finite nuclei behave like molecules composed of clusters of protons and neutrons. Clustering is a recurrent feature in light nuclei, from beryllium to nickel. For…
