Hello.
I have studied about DWBA (distorted wave born approximation).
But, I do not know the physical meaning of "DWBA without spin-orbit interaction".
I think, I can not understand about meaning of spin-orbit.
How can I understand "without spin-orbit intertaction".
Thanks.

What is spin-orbit interaction in general, without involvement in scattering theory?
 
Amm... I don't know exactly... maybe electromagnetic interaction?
 
Well, then I'm afraid you're reading things beyond your current education level. I suggest you pick a good book on Quantum Mechanics (Shankar, Zettili, Brandsden and Joachain) and go through until you reach the "spin-orbit interaction" part.
 
Thank you for advice.

Thread 'Quantum behaviour of an electron around a positively charged sphere'

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
