Precision Calculations for Three-Body Molecular Bound States

Abstract: Although they do not lend themselves to analytical resolution, three-body atomic or molecular systems are still simple enough to allow for very precise theoretical predictions of their energy levels, which makes them attractive candidates for fundamental tests and determination of fundamental physical constants. Focusing on the hydrogen molecular ions (H + 2 , HD + , D + 2 ), we outline the methods which have been used to improve the theoretical accuracy by several orders of magnitude over the last two decades… Show more

“…An impressive improvement has been witnessed in recent years in HD + theory (123) and experiments (37,124,125), so that the precision reached has become sensitive to the proton radius puzzle. The transition frequencies in HD + can be expressed as:…”

“…Other interesting three-body systems are molecular ions. Precision values of the proton and deuteron radii play an increasingly important role also for the precise predictions of the HD + energy levels given the spectacular advances both in theory and experiment [44][45][46][47]. With R ∞ and nuclear charge radii obtained by combining µp and H measurements, and the electron/proton and proton/deuteron mass ratios from Penning trap measurements, the HD + theory has been verified at the 2 × 10 −11 level, representing the best test of a three-body system.…”
