Abstract
We describe the main features of resonances in scattering, determining the resonances in view of the theory of collisions in a two-body system, as well as the resonances emerging as a result of collisions in a few-body system. We analyze regularities in the emergence of such resonances and their characteristics. We discuss the results of calculations of the resonant processes occurring during collisions of electrons with diatomic molecules, in view of the quantum theory of scattering in a few-body system based on the Faddeev–Yakubovsky equations.
