Abstract

We calculate the low-lying energy spectrum for three trapped identical bosons interacting via a finite-range potential. The spectrum is compared to results from the zero-range model. The thresholds for trimer binding and atom-dimer binding are extracted and related to effective range corrections. Effective range corrections to Efimov physics and Borromean binding are two aspects of the same effect, and we connect these two regions qualitatively. The Borromean window becomes slightly narrower for substantial effective ranges. The structure at the atom-dimer threshold is an atom far away from the dimer and the major energy correction is due to the change of dimer energy with effective range. This structure becomes less pronounced when the effective range increases.
