Abstract:A coupled-channel resonating group equation for orthogonal channel spaces is derived. It follows from the common resonating group equation by a recursion relation. The recursion extracts from higher channels all overlaps with lower channels, such that the higher channels become corrections to the lower ones. A physically meaningful definition of elimination potentials becomes possible. The new coupled channel resonating group equation allows the derivation of physical effective potentials by eliminating small … 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.
