We report studies of the response of a massless particle confined by a potential. At large momentum transfer q it exhibits \tilde{y} or equivalently Nachtmann \xi scaling, and acquires a constant width independent of q. This width has a…

Scattering resonances play a central role in collision processes in physics and chemistry. They help building an intuitive understanding of the collision dynamics due to the spatial localization of the scattering wavefunctions. For…

The normalisation relation between the bound and scattering S-state wave functions, extrapolated to the bound state pole, is derived from the Schroedinger equation. It is shown that, unlike previous work, the result does not depend on the…
