The asymptotic form of the plane wave decomposition into spherical waves, which is used to express the scattering amplitude in terms of phase shifts, is incorrect. We explain why and show how to circumvent the mathematical inconsistency.

We generalize the spherical harmonics for l=1 and give the differential equation that the generalized forms satisfy. The new forms have an obvious interpretation in the context of quantum mechanics.
