KnowraScattering amplitudeLinked fromLinked fromThe 9 pages that link to Scattering amplitude, each with the reason it gives.All 9Broader topic 1Related 6Narrower topic 2ScatteringRelated: Its angular dependence encodes the pattern produced by a scattering interaction.Feynman diagramNarrower topic: Summing diagram contributions yields the perturbative scattering amplitude.Elastic scatteringRelated: Its angular dependence encodes the probability of elastic outcomes.Probability amplitudeBroader topic: It applies probability amplitudes directly to particle-scattering predictions.Scattering theoryRelated: It translates a scattering calculation into the angular distribution measured in experiments.Optical theoremNarrower topic: The theorem extracts the total cross section from one specific value of this quantity.Feynman rulesRelated: Summing diagram contributions produces the perturbative amplitude.Virtual particleRelated: Virtual lines contribute to the amplitude, not as separately counted detected particles.Coleman–Mandula theoremRelated: Analyticity and nontrivial scattering conditions on amplitudes help make the theorem restrictive.
