title: Modern nuclear force predictions for the alpha particle
abstract: We present new calculations of the alpha particle which are based on the most modern nucleon-nucleon interactions alone and combined with the Tucson-Melbourne or the Urbana IX three-nucleon interaction. Results for the binding energies and some properties of the wave function are given. On that phenomenological level little room is left for the action of a possible four-nucleon force.
