Abstract
In this article a short overview of the Faddeev-Yakubovsky (FY) equation formalism is provided. The progress in solving the few-particle problem based on solution of the FY equations is briefly discussed. The first numerical solution of the 5-body FY equations is undertaken, presenting the formalism how to include the three-nucleon interactions. Finally the results related with low energy neutron scattering on \(^4\)He are presented and discussed.
