Multiparticle quantum scattering in constant magnetic fields, 2002:p. ix (Quantum scattering theory is the subfield of quantum mechanics that deals with the large-time asymptotics of the solutions of the Schroedinger equation and with the structure of the continuous spectrum of the corresponding Schroedinger operator. One of its main problems is to prove (or disprove) asymptotic completeness, which, roughly speaking, is a statement that all solutions of the Schroedinger equation under consideration must asymptotically follow certain prescribed patterns)
