Abstract:The relation between the method of coupled channels for rearrangement reactions (CRC) and the bound state approximation to the channel coupling array formalism (BSCCA), advocated in recent years, is investigated in detail for a simple 3-body system expressed in terms of truncated component wavefunctions of Faddeev type. The system is described by coupled differential or integral equations that are truncated into a model space of strongly-coupled channels. It is shown that CRC can be derived from the truncated … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
