Abstract

It is found that the simple expression [(πcq)/sinh(πcq)][J 1(Rq)/(Rq)] for the elastic scattering amplitude makes it possible to well describe differential cross sections over a broad range of energies from 100 MeV to \(\sqrt s \) = 1800 GeV. This parametrization can be used to calculate antiproton-nucleus and antinucleus-nucleus amplitudes and cross sections, which are necessary in accelerator experiments and in cosmic ray physics. The generalization of the wavelet expansion to the case of functions defined on a semi-infinite interval is also proposed.
