EWS time delay in low energy e C60 elastic scattering (2401.03370v1)
Published 7 Jan 2024 in math.NA, cs.NA, and quant-ph
Abstract: Time delay in a projectile-target scattering is a fundamental tool in understanding their interactions by probing the temporal domain. The present study focuses on computing and analyzing the Eisenbud-Wigner-Smith (EWS) time delay in low energy elastic e C60 scattering. The investigation is carried out in the framework of a non-relativistic partial wave analysis (PWA) technique. The projectile-target interaction is described in (1) Density Functional Theory (DFT) and (2) Annular Square Well (ASW) static model, and their final results are compared in details. The impact of polarization on resonant and non-resonant time delay is also investigated.
