Abstract

With the use of the stereographic projection of momentum space into the four-dimensional sphere of unit radius. the possibility of the analytical solution of the three-dimensional two-body Lippmann-Schwinger equation with the Coulomb interaction at negative energy has been studied. Simple analytical expressions for the three-dimensional Coulomb transition matrix in the case of the repulsive Coulomb interaction and positive integer values of the Coulomb parameter have been obtained. The worked out method has been also applied for the generalized three-dimensional Coulomb transition matrix in the case of the attractive Coulomb interaction and negative integer values of the Coulomb parameter.
