Based on a three-potential formalism we propose mathematically well-behaved Faddeev-type integral equations for the atomic three-body problem and descibe their solutions in Coulomb-Sturmian space representation. Although the system contains…
We expose the relation between the properties of the three-body continuum states and their two-body subsystems. These properties refer to their bound and virtual states and resonances, all defined as poles of the $S$-matrix. For one…
A short review of our recent work on amplitude parametrizations of three-body hadronic weak $B$ and $D$ decays is presented. The final states are here composed of three light mesons, namely the various charge $\pi\pi\pi$, $K\pi\pi$ and…
We investigate systems of three mutually interacting particles with masses of which the inner is much bigger than the intermediate and the latter is much bigger than the outer. Then the three-body problem reduces to the two-body scattering…

In a previous paper (Gayon & Bois 2008a), we have shown the general efficiency of retrograde resonances for stabilizing compact planetary systems. Such retrograde resonances can be found when two-planets of a three-body planetary system are…
Four-body systems are studied using an effective field theory with two- and three-body contact interactions. A method to systematically address deep trimers (three-body bound states that are more tightly bound than four-body bound/resonant…
Using effective-range expansion for the two-body amplitudes may generate spurious sub-threshold poles outside of the convergence range of the expansion. In the infinite volume, the emergence of such poles leads to the inconsistencies in the…
The rigorous treatment of four-particle intermediate and final states poses a major challenge for lattice calculations of scattering and decay amplitudes, as well as long-distance matrix elements. As a step towards addressing these…
The low-energy scattering of three bosons or distinguishable particles with short-range interactions is characterized by a fundamental parameter, the three-body scattering hypervolume. Its imaginary part is directly related to the…
