Contribution
It introduces the semi-classical framework for 2D quantum scattering and derives key results like WKB and Eikonal approximations.
Findings
No backward or forward glory scattering in 2D
Rainbow and orbiting phenomena are present in 2D scattering
Derived semi-classical formulas specific to 2D systems
Abstract
The semi-classical limit of quantum-mechanical scattering in two dimensions (2D) is developed. We derive the Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin and Eikonal results for 2D scattering. No backward or forward glory scattering is present in 2D. Other phenomena, such as rainbow or orbiting do show up.
