Abstract
We study a heavy–heavy–light three-body system confined to one space dimension in the regime where an excited state in the heavy–light subsystems becomes weakly bound. The associated two-body system is characterized by (i) the structure of the weakly-bound excited heavy–light state and (ii) the presence of deeply-bound heavy–light states. The consequences of these aspects for the behavior of the three-body system are analyzed. We find a strong indication for universal behavior of both three-body binding energies and wave functions for different weakly-bound excited states in the heavy–light subsystems.
