چکیده
The evaluation of the matrix elements of the Coulomb interaction in calculations using the Lippmann–Schwinger (or related) equations is complicated by the existence of a singularity in the integrand. One method of handling this singularity is to use a procedure commonly called the Lande subtraction. A procedure is outlined which relates the subtraction integrals to formulae involving the zeros of Legendre polynomials. This is used to compute tables of subtraction integrals that can be used to improve the precision of integrations performed with the Lande subtraction. 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Treatment of the Coulomb interaction in momentum space calculations of proton elastic scattering.
It is now well established' that the nonlocality of the first order Kerman-McManus-Thaler (KMT) optical potential for nucleon-nucleus scattering must be treated accurately in order to reproduce experimental data for proton-nucleus elastic scattering at intermediate energies. It thus proves very convenient to perform the associated numerical calculations in momentum space. It has been shown clea...

Quantum mechanical models and practical calculations often rely on some exactly solvable models like the Coulomb and the harmonic oscillator potentials. The D dimensional generalized Coulomb potential contains these potentials as limiting cases, thus it establishes a continuous link between the Coulomb and harmonic oscillator potentials in various dimensions. We present results which are necess...

Two independent calculations of proton-deuteron elastic scattering observables including Coulomb repulsion between the two protons are compared in the proton lab energy region between 3 MeV and 65 MeV. The hadron dynamics is based on the purely nucleonic charge-dependent AV18 potential. Calculations are done both in coordinate space and momentum space. The coordinate-space calculations are base...
