Title: Identical particle states and operators and the case of two-electron scattering

Journal Article · · Am. J. Phys.; (United States)
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1119/1.13794· OSTI ID:6406860

A simplified notation is introduced for dealing with systems of indistinguishable fermions and bosons. The second-quantized form of system operators is obtained in a simpler manner than is offered ordinarily in textbooks. Details of the calculation of the nonrelativistic Mapprox. =ller cross section for scattering of two electrons are given as an example.
