A distorted-wave version of the renormalisation group is applied to scattering by an inverse-square potential and to three-body systems. In attractive three-body systems, the short-distance wave function satisfies a Schroedinger equation…

Nuclear effective field theory organizes the calculation of observables as a power series in terms of the ratio of soft and hard momentum scales. The rigorous implementation of this idea requires a mixture of perturbative and…
