Abstract

Bound-state solutions for the system composed of a pion and two nucleons are studied, and it is shown that their existence is essentially determined by the range of the πN interaction in momentum space. The relativistic Faddeev equations are solved to search for bound-state solutions of a negative pion and two neutrons, using the newly constructed πN separable potentials that reproduce the phase shift of the P33 channel from 0 to 350 MeV, and realistic NN interactions such as the Reid soft-core, Paris, and Malfliet-Tjon potentials. It is found that bound-state solutions are possible for some of the πN interactions that have very long range in momentum space.
