%0 Journal Article %T Universal Bound States of Two Particles in Mixed Dimensions or Near a Mirror %A Shina Tan %J Physics %D 2012 %I arXiv %R 10.1103/PhysRevLett.109.020401 %X Some novel TWO-body effects analogous to the well-known THREE-body Efimov effect are predicted. In the systems considered, particle A is constrained on a TRUNCATED or BENT one-dimensional line or two-dimensional plane, or on one side of a flat mirror in three dimensions (3D). The constraining potential is fine-tuned such that particle A's ground state wave function is a constant in the region in which it is constrained. Particle B moves in 3D and interacts with particle A resonantly. An infinite sequence of giant two-body bound states are found in each case. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1201.6014v2
