Three bosons in two dimensions — •Kerstin Helfrich and Hans-Werner Hammer — HISKP(Theorie) und BCTP, Universität Bonn

In this talk I discuss two-dimensional atomic gases exhibiting a large two-body scattering length. In an effective field theory framework we are able to calculate observables up to next-to-leading order, i.e. with the inclusion of the two-body effective range. We are especially interested in three-body observables such as the binding energies, the atom-dimer scattering length and the three-body recombination rate.
