Three-body bound states in antiferromagnetic spin ladders

Most bound quantum states in condensed matter systems emerge due to two-body interactions. Here, the formation of a stable three-particle bound state, induced by irreducible three-particle interactions in an antiferromagnetic spin ladder, is evidenced analytically and numerically for realistic mater...
