We analyze the scattering problem of identical bosonic particles confined on a spherical surface. At low scattering energies and for a radius much larger than the healing length, we express the contact interaction strength in terms of the…
In the standard Breit-Wigner approach to scattering the phase shift is to have a form $\tan\delta_{\rm BW} =\Gamma_1/(E_1-E)$ at a real energy resonance. This leads to complex energy poles in the scattering amplitude at $E_{\rm…
