Let $M$ be a scattering manifold, i.e., a Riemannian manifold with asymptotically conic structure, and let $H$ be a Schr\"odinger operator on $M$. We can construct a natural time-dependent scattering theory for $H$ with a suitable reference…
We consider scattering matrix for Schr\"odinger-type operators on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with perturbation $V(x)=O(\langle x\rangle^{-1})$ as $|x|\to\infty$. We show that the scattering matrix (with time-independent modifiers) is a…
We discuss the properties of eigenphases of S--matrices in random models simulating classically chaotic scattering. The energy dependence of the eigenphases is investigated and the corresponding velocity and curvature distributions are…
The $M$-dimensional scattering matrix $S(E)$ which connects incoming to outgoing waves in a chaotic systyem is always unitary, but shows complicated dependence on the energy. This is partly encoded in correlators constructed from traces of…
The process of scattering of fast charged particles in thin crystals is considered in the transitional range of thicknesses, between those at which the channeling phenomenon is not developed and those at which it is realized. The…
We introduce an algorithm for the solution of a system of radial Schr\"odinger equations describing the inelastic scattering of particles with spin in a partial wave with definite total angular momentum. The system of differential equations…

The planar-diagrammatic technique of large-$N$ random matrices is extended to evaluate averages over the circular ensemble of unitary matrices. It is then applied to study transport through a disordered metallic ``grain'', attached through…
We study and develop the stationary scattering theory for a class of one-body Stark Hamiltonians with short-range potentials, including the Coulomb potential, continuing our study in [AIIS1,AIIS2]. The classical scattering orbits are…
In this paper, we propose using the scattering surface area rather than the scattering cross section to characterize the scattering behavior of ellipsoidal rigid bodies. We examined the scattering behavior of ellipsoidal rigid bodies,…
Scattering properties and time delays for general (non-symmetric) potentials in terms of the respective S-matrices are discussed paradigmatically in one dimension and in comparison to symmetric potentials. Only for the latter the Wigner and…
Exact analytical expressions for the cross-section correlation functions of chaotic scattering sys- tems have hitherto been derived only under special conditions. The objective of the present article is to provide expressions that are…
Time-independent scattering methods are widely used to analyze transport in periodic $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric systems. However, their predictions become unphysical when the system supports time-growing bound states (TGBSs), which manifest…
I apply the set-up of Lax-Phillips Scattering Theory to a non-archimedean local field. It is possible to choose the outgoing space and the incoming space to be Fourier transforms of each other. Key elements of the Lax-Phillips theory are…
We study the microlocal properties of the scattering matrix associated to the semiclassical Schr\"odinger operator $P=h^2\Delta_X+V$ on a Riemannian manifold with an infinite cylindrical end. The scattering matrix at $E=1$ is a linear…
We show that the study of the statistical properties of the scattering matrix S for quantum chaotic scattering in the presence of direct processes (charaterized by a nonzero average S matrix <S>) can be reduced to the simpler case where…
We exemplarily investigate how optical properties of single scatterers in interacting multi-particle systems influence measurable structure factors. Both particles with linear gradients of their scattering length density and core-shell…

We investigate the hypothesized existence of an S-matrix for gravity, and some of its expected general properties. We first discuss basic questions regarding existence of such a matrix, including those of infrared divergences and…
The decay of $\alpha$ particle from a nucleus is viewed as a quantum resonance state of a two-body scattering process of the $\alpha$+daughter nucleus pair governed by a novel nucleus-nucleus potential in squared Woods-Saxon form. By the…
