If we were to consider a nucleon-nucleon interaction:
We know that the incident wave (plane wave) is ψ= Ae[itex]^{ikz}[/itex], propagating in z direction
But for some mathematical facilities, we tend to use spherical coordinates, the wave becomes = [itex]\frac{A}{2ik}[/itex][e[itex]^{ikr}[/itex]/r - e[itex]^{-ikr}[/itex]/r]
How come?
Where did the '2ik' in the denominator come from?
