Fm. Fernandez et R. Guardiola, THE RICCATI-PADE METHOD FOR COUPLED-CHANNEL EQUATIONS, Journal of physics. A, mathematical and general, 30(16), 1997, pp. 5825-5833
We present a method for calculating the energies of bound and quasibou
nd states of quantum-mechanical problems expressed in terms of coupled
-channel equations. The approach is based on a rational approximation
to the logarithmic derivative of the eigenfunction and leads to a simp
le quantization condition.
