Abstract

Leading-order three-nucleon forces that violate isospin symmetry are calculated in heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory. The effect of the charge-symmetry-breaking three-nucleon force is investigated in the trinucleon systems using Faddeev calculations. We find that the contribution of this force to the ${}^{3}{He} - {}^{3}H$ binding-energy difference is given by $Δ E_{3 NF}^{CSB} \approx 5$ keV.
