(a) Plot of wave functions for the system in the state . The blue lines denote the wave functions for any two nucleons in the system. The red lines represent the wave functions for its subsystem deuteron. (b) Dependence of the total three-body binding energy on the two-body binding energy of its subsystem . The left red point indicates the Critical Borromean state of the system. The right one is our numerical result corresponding to the triton or helium-3 nucleus.
