Use the Born approximation to determine the total cross-section for scattering from a Gaussian potentialV(r)=Ae-渭谤2.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Using first Born approximation for spherically symmetric potential, we calculated total cross-section:

=2m2A22k243[1-e-2k2/]

Step by step solution

01

Using Born approximation.

We need to calculate total cross-section for scattering using first Born approximation for given potential

V(r)=Ae-渭谤2

Potential has spherical symmetry, so in order to find scattering amplitude we use following expression:

f()=-2m20rV(r)sin(魏谤)dr 鈥︹.. (1)

f()=-2m20rAe-渭谤2sin(魏谤)dr 鈥︹.. (2)

To take the constant outside,

f()=-2mA20re-渭谤2sin(魏谤)dr..(3) f()=-2mA20ddr-12e-渭谤2sin(魏谤)dr......(4)

To integrate,

f()=mA2[e-渭谤2sin魏谤|0-0e-渭谤2cosrdr]........(5)

f()=-mA22e-2/4.......(6)

f()=-mA2322e-2/4......(7)

Where in equation (5) we used integration by parts. Only has angular dependence:

=2ksin2

02

To calculate the total cross-section.

We can now calculate the total cross-section:

dd=|f()|2dd=m2A2443e-2/2

Now calculate the total cross-section,

role="math" localid="1658388382186" =(蟺尘2A2443002d-4k2sin2/2/2sin=2m2A22430-2k2sin22/sin=2m2A224302cos2sin2e-2k2sin22/渭诲蠎

03

The integration value

To integrate,

u=2k2sin2002k2du=2k2sin2cos2d=(2m2A24302k2/e-du=2m2A22k243[1-e-2k2/].
