Solution of multiple scattering by finite iteration |
| Date |
1978-01 |
| Description |
We propose an iterative nonlinear solution to the general potential scattering problem in quantum mechanics. It is illustrated by the case of N2 localized scatterers of arbitrary strengths Vj located at arbitrary points Rj in an infinite lattice, for which we obtain the complete set of bound and scattering states. The numberical evaluation is estimated to take 0(NI) steps as opposed to 0(NI³) steps by conventional matrix inversion. |
