The charge form factor of the model triton for two-particle interactions with continuum bound states

The charge form factor of the model triton clearly exhibits the collapse which occurs in the triton for purely nonlocal two-body interactions with continuum bound states and approaches an asymptotic shape with increasing binding energy. However, partly nonlocal interactions with continuum bound states, which previously have been shown not to produce such a collapse, also show no evidence whatsoever of the presence of the two-particle continuum bound state in the triton charge form factor. In the physically interesting case of partly nonlocal interactions the occurrence of a continuum bound state in the two-body interactions therefore can be completely harmless in the three-body system.
