Incorporation of three-nucleon force in the effective interaction hyperspherical harmonic approach

It is shown how a bare three-nucleon force is incorporated into the formalism of the effective interaction approach for hyperspherical harmonics. As a practical example we calculate the ground state properties of 3H and 3He using the Argonne V18 nucleon-nucleon potential and the Urbana IX three-nucleon force. A very good convergence of binding energies and matter radii is obtained. We also find a very good agreement of our results compared to other high precision calculations.
