Abstract
The implications of representing the interaction by an attractive potential with an excluded bound state, rather than by a repulsive potential, are explored with three-body models of the and ground states. After an introduction to the underlying theory, comparisons are made between the predictions of the two models for decay, the shell structure of and , and the -deuteron properties of . A major conclusion is that the appropriate choice for the interaction should be extractable from electron coincidence experiments of the or type.
