On Bound States and Scattering in Positron Theory
Abstract
The use of bound-state wave functions in calculations in positron theory is justified by the introduction of a new representation, in a certain sense intermediate between the Heisenberg and interaction representations. In the bound-state representation the definition of a stable vacuum state is possible only for a restricted class of external fields. Some attention is given to the problem of vacuum polarization, and it is shown that a very simple procedure accomplishes the charge renormalization with sufficient accuracy to be of use in certain scattering problems. The application to the scattering of radiation is discussed in some detail, in order to show the relation between the different points of view that may be adopted in problems of the coherent scattering by a bound electron and the "Delbr\"uck scattering" by virtual electron pairs.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
