Relativistic descriptions of few-body systems
arXiv:1011.0314 · doi:10.1007/s00601-010-0183-8
Abstract
A brief review of relativistic effects in few-body systems, of theoretical approaches, recent developments and applications is given. Manifestations of relativistic effects in the binding energies, in the electromagnetic form factors and in three-body observables are demonstrated. The three-body forces of relativistic origin are also discussed.
