The Big Wave Model is based upon an analogy to the physics of neutron scattering by a nucleus. The incoming neutron is represented by a plane wave, which is decomposed into spherical Bessel function components to match the Center-of Mass system of the two particles. The Schrodinger Wave Equations a...
