Improved version of the eikonal model for absorbing spherical particles

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-06-25 v1

Abstract

We present a new expression of the scattering amplitude, valid for spherical absorbing objects, which leads to an improved version of the eikonal method outside the diffraction region. Limitations of this method are discussed and numerical results are presented and compared successfully with the Mie theory.
