Abstract

The triton ground-state wave function calculated using the Reid soft-core potential is displayed in configuration space. Both the S-state and D-state Schrödinger wave function components and the Faddeev amplitudes from which they are constructed are plotted. Specific features resulting from the tensor nature of the two-body force and from the strong short-range repulsion of the potential are discussed. Comparisons with corresponding functions generated by the Malfliet-Tjon s-wave potential model are made. Several intuitive features of the Schrödinger wave function are discussed.
