3D reduction of the three-fermion Bethe-Salpeter equation

Abstract

We present a 3D approximation of the three-fermion Bethe-Salpeter equation. Our 3D equation is covariantly cluster separable and the two-fermion cluster separated limits are exact equivalents of the corresponding two-fermion Bethe-Salpeter equations. The potentials include positive free energy projectors in order to avoid continuum dissolution.
