Multichannel scattering calculations using absorbing potentials and mapped grids.
The authors investigate the use of absorbing potentials and discrete variable representation grid methods in multichannel time-independent scattering calculations. An exactly solvable, coupled-two-channel problem involving square-well potentials is used to assess the quality of numerical results. Special emphasis is given to the description of scattering resonances and near-threshold regions. Numerical treatment of close vicinities of thresholds requires the introduction of nonequidistant grids through a mapping procedure of the scattering coordinate.
