Phys. Rev. A 68, 022703 (2003) [10 pages]Asymptotic behavior of the Coulomb three-body scattered waveReceived 11 April 2003; published 13 August 2003 Asymptotic forms of the scattered wave for a system of three arbitrary charged particles valid in all domains relevant to breakup are derived. The derivations are based on the relationship between the total wave function of a breakup process in a three-body system with Coulomb interactions and the wave function of the process of scattering of all three particles of the system in the continuum. The results are free from amplitude-phase ambiguity problems associated with previously known forms. A similar technique is used to obtain asymptotic forms of the three-body Coulomb Green’s function. © 2003 The American Physical Society URL:
