Quantum Multiple Scattering: Eigenmode Expansion and Its Applications to Proximity Resonance
Sheng Li, Eric J. Heller
We show that for a general system of N s-wave point scatterers, there are always N eigenmodes. These eigenmodes or eigenchannels play the same role as spherical harmonics for a sph…

Transition from reflection to sticking in ultracold atom-surface scattering
Areez Mody, John Doyle, Eric J. Heller
In paper I (physics/0010068) entitled "The No-sticking Effect in Ultra-cold Collisions", we showed that under very general circumstances, atoms approaching a surface will not stick…

The No-sticking Effect in Ultra-cold Collisions
Areez Mody, Michael Haggerty, Eric J. Heller
We provide the theoretical basis for understanding the phenomenon in which an ultra cold atom incident on a possibly warm target will not stick, even in the large limit where $…
