Three-nucleon forces are an essential ingredient for an accurate description of nuclear few- and many-body systems. However, implementing them directly in many-body calculations is technically very challenging. Thus, there is a need for an…
The long-range terms of the subleading chiral three-nucleon force [published in Phys.\,Rev.\,C77, 064004 (2008)] are specified to the case of three neutrons. From these $3n$-interactions an effective density-dependent neutron-neutron…
