Finite volume multiple-particle interaction is studied in a two-dimensional complex $\phi^4$ lattice model. The existence of analytical solutions to the $\phi^4$ model in two-dimensional space and time makes it a perfect model for the…

We consider the scattering of $n$ classical particles interacting via pair potentials, under the assumption that each pair potential is "long-range", i.e. being of order ${\cal O}(r^{-\alpha})$ for some $\alpha >0$. We define and focus on…

We propose a semiclassical approach to calculate multiparticle cross sections in scalar theories, which have been strongly argued to have the exponential form $\exp(\lambda^{-1}F(\lambda n,\epsilon))$ in the regime $\lambda\to0$, $\lambda…
Conventional scattering theory is incomplete in that it does not adequately describe the behaviour of the wave function at macroscopic distances from the scattering reaction volume. In scattering experiments particles are incident from…
