Convergence study of the close-coupling approach to positron-helium collisions

Description

Positron-helium collisions have been studied using a two-center close-coupling method. Convergent, pseudoresonance-free cross sections have been obtained by using complete expansions on both the helium and positronium centers. The low energy elastic cross sections, phase-shifts and total cross sections are compared with experimental data and results of other theories.
