Summary
The asymptotic form for the wave-function of a spin-1/2 particle scattered by a Coulomb potential is discussed. A convergence theorem is proved establishing the existence of a generalized Møller wave-matrix. Problems remaining in the theory are mentioned.
Riassunto
Si discute la forma asintotica della funzione d'onda di una particella di spin 1/2 diffusa da un potenziale di Coulomb. Si dimostra un teorema di convergenza che afferma l’esistenza di una matrice d'onda di Møller generalizzata. Si elencano i rimanenti problemi della teoria.
