This article reviews theoretical and experimental advances in Efimov physics, an array of
quantum few-body and many-body phenomena arising for particles interacting via short …

Effective field theory allows for a systematic and model-independent derivation of the forces
between nucleons in harmony with the symmetries of quantum chromodynamics. The …

A recent rejuvenation of experimental and theoretical interest in the physics of few-body
systems has provided deep, fundamental insights into a broad range of problems. Few-body …

Particles with short-range interactions and a large scattering length have universal low-
energy properties that do not depend on the details of their structure or their interactions at …

Nuclear halos emerge as new degrees of freedom near the neutron and proton driplines.
They consist of a core and one or a few nucleons which spend most of their time in the …

This article provides an overview of the basic principles of the physics of quantum halo
systems, defined as bound states of clusters of particles with a radius extending well into …

The quantum mechanical three-body problem is studied for general short-range interactions.
We work in coordinate space to facilitate accurate computations of weakly bound and …

Halo nuclei are a promising new arena for studies based on effective field theory (EFT). We
develop an EFT for shallow p-wave states and discuss the application to elastic nα …

The theoretical status on universal aspects of weakly-bound neutron-rich light nuclei are
reviewed, considering few-body approaches. We focus the review on the low-energy …

Particles with resonant short-range interactions have universal properties that do not
depend on the details of their structure or their interactions at short distances. In the three …
