Abstract

Abstract:Classical scattering trajectories are known to form a Lagrangian manifold in euclidean phase space, which allows the classification of local focal points for sufficiently small dimensions. For the case of a short-range potential, we show that the natural description of focal points at infinity is a Lagrangian manifold in the cotangent bundle of the sphere and establish the relationship between focal points at infinity and the projection singularities of that manifold.
