Direct and Inverse Problems: Potentials in Quantum Scattering

By Allina A. Suzko, Boris N. Zakhariev, Boris N. Zakhariev, et al.

This textbook can almost be viewed as a "how-to" manual for solving quantum inverse problems, that is, for deriving the potential from spectra or scattering data and also, as somewhat of a quantum "picture book" which should enhance the reader's quantum intuition. The formal exposition of inverse methods is paralleled by a discussion of the direct problem. Differential and finite-difference equations are presented side by side. A variety of solution methods is presented. To foster a better understanding, the physical meaning of the mathematical quantities are discussed in detail.
