Abstract

For a system of three charged particles the Faddeev equations are derived in the total-angular-momentum representation. They have the form of coupled sets of partial differential equations in three-dimensional space and can be used to develop new efficient numerical procedures to tackle the three-body Coulomb problem. The asymptotic conditions at large distances corresponding both to binary scattering and bound-state problems are presented. The behaviour of the Faddeev components near the triple and double collision points is studied.
