Summary

A method related to that of Faddeev and Kulish to eliminate infra-red divergences is illastrated in some exactly solvable nonrelativistic models.

Riassunto

Si espone nell’ambito di alcuni modelli non relativistici esattamente risolvibili un metodo collegato a quello di Faddeev e Kulish per l’eliminazione delle divergenze nell’infrarosso.

Резюме
