§14.31(ii) Conical Functions
These functions are also used in the Mehler–Fock integral transform (§14.20(vi)) for problems in potential and heat theory, and in elementary particle physics (Sneddon (1972, Chapter 7) and Braaksma and Meulenbeld (1967)). …
2: 5.20 Physical Applications
§5.20 Physical Applications
In nonrelativistic quantum mechanics, collisions between two charged particles are described with the aid of the Coulomb phase shift ph Γ ( + 1 + i η ) ; see (33.2.10) and Clark (1979). …
Elementary Particles
Veneziano (1968) identifies relationships between particle scattering amplitudes described by the beta function, an important early development in string theory. …

    §33.22 Particle Scattering and Atomic and Molecular Spectra
    With e denoting here the elementary charge, the Coulomb potential between two point particles with charges Z 1 e , Z 2 e and masses m 1 , m 2 separated by a distance s is V ( s ) = Z 1 Z 2 e 2 / ( 4 π ε 0 s ) = Z 1 Z 2 α c / s , where Z j are atomic numbers, ε 0 is the electric constant, α is the fine structure constant, and is the reduced Planck’s constant. … Customary variables are ( ϵ , r ) in atomic physics and ( η , ρ ) in atomic and nuclear physics. … The relativistic motion of spinless particles in a Coulomb field, as encountered in pionic atoms and pion-nucleon scattering (Backenstoss (1970)) is described by a Klein–Gordon equation equivalent to (33.2.1); see Barnett (1981a). … For scattering problems, the interior solution is then matched to a linear combination of a pair of Coulomb functions, F ( η , ρ ) and G ( η , ρ ) , or f ( ϵ , ; r ) and h ( ϵ , ; r ) , to determine the scattering S -matrix and also the correct normalization of the interior wave solutions; see Bloch et al. (1951). …
