## TL;DR

This paper investigates universal short-range correlations in bosonic helium clusters using the generalized contact formalism, supported by Monte Carlo simulations and experimental data, revealing consistent two-body contact values.

## Contribution

It introduces a formalism for universal n-body correlations in helium clusters and numerically evaluates contact values up to five particles.

## Key findings

- Universal n-body correlations are demonstrated numerically.
- Two-body contact values agree with experimental measurements.
- Monte Carlo simulations support the theoretical formalism.

## Abstract

Short-range correlations in bosonic Helium clusters, composed of $^4$He atoms, are studied utilizing the generalized contact formalism. The emergence of universal $n$-body short range correlations is formulated and demonstrated numerically via Monte Carlo simulations. The values of the $n$-particle contacts are evaluated for $n\le5$. In the thermodynamic limit, the two-body contact is extracted from available experimental measurements of the static structure factor of liquid $^4$He at high momenta, and found in a good agreement with the value extracted from our calculations.
