The excitation and decay probabilities for resonance scattering
of radiation from an atom with two coupled excited states and one
ground state in an external static field are calculated as a function
of time and frequency. Various oscillatory behaviors are found in all
the probabilities. These oscillations depend on the...
We introduce a relativistic model for pion-nucleon scattering which includes an elementary
delta dressed by its decay. Crossing-symmetric single-particle exchange
is augmented by parametrized multiple-scattering interactions, with covariant sideways
form factors in both 3- and 4-field vertices. Causality is enforced by dispersion
relations. Unitary fits to observed on-shell amplitudes are...
We exhibit long-lived resonances in scattering from two-dimensional soft cage potentials comprised of three and four Gaussian peaks. Specific low-energy resonances with very narrow width are shown to correspond to classical multiple-reflection events. These states have much larger probability densities inside the cage than outside and mimic bound states in...
