Faddeev-Merkuriev integral equations for atomic three-body resonances
نویسنده
چکیده
Three-body resonances in atomic systems are calculated as complexenergy solutions of Faddeev-type integral equations. The homogeneous FaddeevMerkuriev integral equations are solved by approximating the potential terms in a Coulomb-Sturmian basis. The Coulomb-Sturmian matrix elements of the three-body Coulomb Green’s operator has been calculated as a contour integral of two-body Coulomb Green’s matrices. This approximation casts the integral equation into a matrix equation and the complex energies are located as the complex zeros of the Fredholm determinant. We calculated resonances of the e − Ps system at higher energies and for total angular momentum L = 1 with natural and unnatural parity. Submitted to: J. Phys. B: At. Mol. Phys.

Resonant - state solution of the Faddeev - Merkuriev integral equations for three - body systems with Coulomb - like potentials
A novel method for calculating resonances in three-body Coulom-bic systems is presented. The Faddeev-Merkuriev integral equations are solved by applying the Coulomb-Sturmian separable expansion method. To show the power of the method we calculate resonances of the three-α and the H − systems .
متن کاملSeries of Broad Resonances in Atomic Three-Body Systems
Abstract: We re-examine the series of resonances found earlier in atomic three-body systems by solving the Faddeev-Merkuriev integral equations. These resonances are rather broad and line up at each threshold with gradually increasing gaps. This lining up takes place in the same way for all thresholds and is irrespective of the spatial symmetry. We relate these resonances to the Gailitis mechan...

We calculate resonances in the three-body system with attractive Coulomb potential by solving homogeneous Faddeev-Merkuriev integral equations for complex energies. The equations are solved using the Coulomb-Sturmian separable expansion method. This approach allows us to study the exact behavior of the three-body Coulomb systems near the threshold. A negatively charged positronium ion is used a...
متن کاملIntegral equations for three - body Coulombic resonances ∗
We propose a novel method for calculating resonances in threebody Coulombic systems. The method is based on the solution of the set of Faddeev and Lippmann-Schwinger integral equations, which are designed for solving the three-body Coulomb problem. The resonances of the three-body system are defined as the complex-energy solutions of the homogeneous Faddeev integral equations. We show how the k...

Numerical implementation of the modified Faddeev Equation (MFE) is presented in some detail. The Faddeev channel wave function displays unique properties of each and every open channel, respectively. In particular, near resonant energies, the structures of the resonances are beautifully displayed, from which, the life-time of the resonances can be determined by simply using the uncertainty prin...
