Abstract

A simple extrapolation technique is used to determine the normalization $C$ of the proton-deuteron tail of the ${}^{3}{He}$ wave function. With a wave function calculated using the Faddeev equations and the Reid soft-core potential we find ${| C |}^{2} \approx 2.8$ , in fair agreement with the value ${| C |}^{2} \approx 2.2 \pm 0.3$ estimated by Bolsterli and Hale in a modified phase-shift analysis of $p - {}^{3}{He}$ elastic scattering data.
