Potential splitting approach to the three-body coulomb scattering problem

Abstract

The potential splitting approach is extended to a three-body Coulomb scattering problem. The distorted incident wave is constructed and the driven Schrödinger equation is derived. The full angular momentum representation is used to reduce the dimensionality of the problem. The phase shifts for e+−H and e+−He+ collisions are calculated to illustrate the efficiency of the presented method.
