Quantum bound state of three protons in high magnetic field

ORAL

Abstract

This paper consider possibility that three proton may bind uniform magnetic field. The purpose of this article is to use of the hyperspherical function method for investigation confined three protons. It is apparent that one requires magnetic fields order 10$^{12}$ T for the Coulomb repulsion to be modest enough to be treated as a correction. Such magnetic fields are believed to be found in nature -- on the surface of magnetars. This novel class of quantum bound states is the focus of the present paper.
