Theory of quantum scattering for quantum scatterers

We have analytically explored the phenomenon of quantum scattering for unfixed quantum scatterers. We have considered short ranged (Fermi-Huang $delta_p^3$ [1]) interaction between the incident `particleu0027 and the scatterer with no interactions among the scatterers, and the scatterers as (i) particle(s) in a 1-D box, (ii) particle(s) in a 1-D double box, (iii) particle(s) in a 1-D grating, (iv) particle(s) in a 2-D rectangular box, (v) particle(s) in a 3-D harmonic trap, (vi) Bose-Einstein condensates in a double well, (vii) Bose-Einstein condensates in an optical lattice, etc. Coherent scattering from all possible positions of the quantum scatterers in the finite geometry gives rise to rich physics. We have predicted differential scattering cross-section for `particleu0027 scattering, not only for the above cases, but also for 3-D harmonically trapped Bose and Fermi gases in thermodynamic equilibrium. Our predictions can be tested within the present day experimental setups.
