Asymptotic completeness for a new class of Stark effect Hamiltonians

  • Arne Jensen
Article

Abstract

Existence and completeness of the wave operators is shown for the Stark effect Hamiltonian in one dimension with a potentialV =W″, whereW is a bounded function with four bounded derivatives. This class of potentials include some almost periodic functions and periodic functions with average zero over a period (Stark-Wannier Hamiltonians). In the last section we discuss classical particle scattering for the same class of potentials.
