Abstract

Our approach aims at a general formalism for the quantum description of the three-body Coulomb systems. We seek the exact solutions of 6D Schrödinger equation. For this, we propose a new algorithm for the case of nonzero total angular momentum, taking into account the overall rotation of the system, which is affected indirectly by the Coriolis coupling. We construct a special set of hyperspherical harmonics, which provide much more flexibility in choosing the best basis for the needs of this particular physical problem. The robustness, efficiency, and accuracy of the adopted algorithm are studied in detail. We apply this method to the computation of the nonrelativistic energy levels of the exotic helium$\bar{\rm P}{\rm He}^+$.
