Rutherford classical scattering theory, as its quantum mechanical analogue, is modified for scattering cross-section and the impact parameter by using quantum mechanical momentum, (de Broglie hypothesis), energy relationship for matter oscillator (Einstein’s oscillator) and quantum mechanical wave vectors, and , respectively. It is observed that the quantum mechanical scattering cross-section and the impact parameter depended on inverse square law of quantum action (Planck’s constant). Born approximation is revisited for quantum mechanical scattering. Using Bessel and Neumann asymptotic functions and response of nuclear surface potential barrier, born approximations were modified. The coulombic fields inside the nucleus of the atom are studied for reflection and transmission with corresponding wave vectors, phase shifts and eigenfunctions Bulk quantum mechanical tunneling and reflection scattering, both for ruptured and unruptured nucleus of the atom, are deciphered with corresponding wave vectors, phase shifts and eigenfunction. Similar calculation ware accomplished for quantum surface tunneling and reflection scattering with corresponding wave vectors, phase shifts and eigenfunctions. Such diverse quantum mechanical scattering cross-section with corresponding wave vectors for tunneling and reflection, phase shifts and eigenfunctions will pave a new dimension to understanding the behavior of exchange fields in the nucleus of the atom with insides layers both ruptured and unruptured. Phase shifts, δl for each of the energy profile (partial) will be different and indeed their corresponding wave vectors for exchange energy eigenvalues.

A unified description of classical and quantal scattering is presented. This description is unified both in the mathematical language and in the conceptual pictures that are used. Statistical states and observables, represented in phase space, are emphasized while both the time dependent trajectory and stationary state beam pictures are used. Semiclassical-type approximation schemes to the generalized differential cross section are presented for the single and double potential cases. Connection is made with the Born and distorted wave Born approximations, for both quantum and classical mechanics. A similar semiclassical-type approximation scheme for the double potential internal state kinetic cross section is presented. Connection is also made with the 'constant acceleration approximation' of Oppenheim and Bloom. Zwanzig's projection operator method is used to express the kinetic cross sections in terms of memory effects for the interacting observables.
