Near a Feshbach resonance, cold atoms are strongly interacting because the scattering length diverges. Moreover the interactions are short ranged, which generally allows to model them by a zero-range pseudopotential. The limit of infinite scattering length and zero range is called unitary limit.We solve the 3-body problem at the unitary limit in an isotropic harmonic trap. For bosonic particles, we find two types of eigenstates: universal states which only depend on the oscillation frequency of a particle in the trap, the particles' mass and Planck's constant; and efimovian states which also depend on a 3-body parameter, similarly to the 3-body bound states in free space discovered by Efimov. In an experiment, we predict that the universal ...
