Off-energy-shell generalization of the results in potential scattering

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., C; (United States)
Within the framework of nonrelativistic potential scattering theory, an off-energy-shell generalization of the various solutions and the potential matrix elements is carried out. Some relations between these solutions and between the matrix elements are derived. The off-energy-shell generalization of the Jost--Pais theorem is proved for a general nonlocal interaction. A constraint on the t matrix elements of a local potential is obtained. For given t matrix elements, the value of a certain expression gives a measure of the nonlocality of the underlying interaction.
