abstract

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 theories and are especially prominent in strongly interacting quantum systems. We focus on three-body forces and discuss examples from atomic and nuclear physics. In particular, we highlight the importance and the challenges of three-nucleon forces for nuclear structure and reactions, including applications to astrophysics and fundamental symmetries.

Scrutiny of the new class of three-nucleon forces

nucl-th · 2025-12-16 · conditional · novelty 3.0

After removing renormalization-scheme-dependent short-distance parts, the scrutinized three-nucleon forces yield small contributions to neutron and symmetric nuclear matter equations of state, aligning with standard chiral EFT expectations.
