Bound and unbound wave functions at short distances

Göran Fäldt A, Colin Wilkin C

There exists a simple relationship between a quantum-mechanical bound-state wave function and that of nearby scattering states, when the scattering energy is extrapolated to that of the bound state. This relationship is demonstrated numerically for the case of a spherical well potential and analytically for this and other soluble potentials. Provided that the potential is of a finite range and that the binding is weak, the theorem gives a useful approximation for the short-distance behavior of the scattering wave functions. The connection between bound and scattering-state perturbation theory is established in this limit.

Analytical properties of scattering amplitudes in one-dimensional quantum theory

M S Marinov, Bilha Segev

One-dimensional quantum scattering from a local potential barrier is considered. Analytical properties of the scattering amplitudes have been investigated by means of the integral equations equivalent to the Schrödinger equations. The transition and reflection amplitudes are expressed in terms of two complex functions of the incident energy, which are similar to the Jost function in partial-wave scattering. These functions are entire for finite-range potentials and meromorphic for exponentially decreasing potentials. The analytical properties result from the locality of the potential in the wave equation and represent the effect of causality in the time dependence of the scattering process.
