Low-energy potential scattering in a strong magnetic field
Abstract
The first Born approximation scattering cross section in the presence of a strong magnetic field diverges at the Landau thresholds. At low energy, using a higher order approximation such divergences are rounded off but are still present, while they are completely washed out for higher energy.
