We consider the classical three-body problem with an arbitrary pair potential which depends on the inter-body distance. A general three-body configuration is set by three "radial" and three angular variables, which determine the shape and…

Identifying and characterizing multi-body interactions in quantum processes remains a significant challenge. This is partly because 2-body interactions can produce an arbitrary time evolution, a fundamental fact often called the…
The goal of this paper is to construct an effective model for studying the asymptotic solution of the scattering problem of three one-dimensional quantum particles with finite (short-range) attractive pair potentials. The asymptotic nature…
