Abstract

A special case where the Lippmann–Schwinger integral equation for the partial wave two-body Coulomb transition matrix for likely charged particles with a negative energy has an analytical solution has been considered. Analytical expressions for the partial s-, p-, and d-wave Coulomb transition matrices for repulsively interacting particles at the ground-state energy have been derived, by using the Fock method of stereographic projection of the momentum space onto a four-dimensional unit sphere.
