( 1 )  What is a resonance ?

The discrete energy state created in the continuum energy region by the interaction, which has an outgoing boundary condition.

However, there are several definitions of resonances

(ii) Phase shift

… If any one of kl is such that the denominator ( f(kl) ) of the expression for tanl,

|tanl| = | g(kl)/f(kl) | ∞ ,

( Sl(k) = e2il(k) ),

is very small, the l-th partial wave is said to be in resonance with the scattering potential.

Then, the resonance: l(k) = π/2 + n π

(iii) Decaying state

We obtain a quasi-stational state if we postulate that for r>Rc the solution consists of outgoing waves only. This is equivalent to the condition B=0 in

ψ (r) = A eikr + B e-ikr (for r >Rc).

This restriction again singles out certain define solutions which describe the “decaying states” and their eigenvalues.

•Resonance wave function

For the resonance momentum kr=κ–iγ,

ψ(r) = ei κr erγ, (not normalizable (γ>0) )

A.F.J. Siegert, Phys. Rev. 56 (1939), 750.The physical meaning of a complex energy

E=Er – iΓ/2

can be understood from the time depen-dence of the wave function

ψ(t) = ψ(t=0) exp( - iEt/ h )

and its probability density

| ψ(t)|2 = |ψ(t=0)|2 exp( - Γt/ 2h ).

The lifetime of the resonant state is given by τ = h /Γ .

This asymptotic divergence of the resonance wave function causes difficulties in the resonance calculations.

In the method of complex scaling, a radial   coordinate r is transformed as

Then the asymptotic form of the resonance wave function becomes

Page 22: What is a resonance?

It is now apparent that when π/2>(θ-θr)>0 the wave function converges asymptotically. This result leads to the conclusion that the resonance parameters (Er, Γ) can be obtained as an eigenvalue of a bound-state type wave function. 

This is an important reason why we use the complex scaling method.
