CONNECTION BETWEEN THE HULTHEN AND KOHN METHODS IN COLLISION THEORY

OSTI ID:4309792
Various possible direct variational methods for the determination of the phase shifts of the radial wave function are considered. It is shown that the most natural criterion of the quality of the trial function is the condition of the consistency of the equations. The comparison of the phase-shift results obtained by the Hulthen and Kohn methods, and the verification of whether the integral identity is satisfied, are not independent criteria and in fact reduce to the consistency condition. It is also shown how the correct value can be chosen from two phase-shift values obtained by the Hulthen method, without resorting to comparison with the results of other methods. (auth)
