The present discussion illustrates in a simple fashion the concept of partial-wave decomposition, Green's function, Lippmann-Schwinger integral equations of scattering for wave function and transition operator, optical theorem and unitarity relation. We illustrate the present approach with a Dirac delta potential.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2001-03-05T16:03:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "01.50.-i", "03.50.-z", "02.30.Rz", "02.60.Nm" ], "keywords": [ "dirac delta potential", "complex scattering integral equations", "lippmann-schwinger integral equations", "centrally-symmetric potentials", "unitarity relation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "American Journal of Physics", "year": 2001, "month": "Sep", "volume": 69, "number": 9, "pages": 1010 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2001AmJPh..69.1010B" } } }
