The alpha-particle based on modern nuclear forces
The Faddeev-Yakubovsky equations for the alpha-particle are solved. Accurate
results are obtained for several modern NN interaction models, which include
charge-symmetry breaking effects in the NN force, nucleon mass dependences as
well as the Coulomb interaction. These models are augmented by three-nucleon
forces of different types and adjusted to the 3N binding energy. Our results
are close to the experimental binding energy with a slight overbinding. Thus
there is only little room left for the contribution of possible 4N interactions
to the alpha-particle binding energy. We also discuss model dependences of the
binding energies and the wave functions.Comment: 22 pages REVTeX 4, 12 figures, table with TM parameters added, typos
