Multiple scattering of scalar waves by point scatterers in one dimension. II

In the first paper of this series, we studied the problem of scattering in one dimension of a wave interacting with n randomly distributed pointlike scatterers by delta-function potentials. Averaging the wave function for a constant amplitude transmitted wave over an ensemble of configurations allowed us to obtain an analytic expression for the optical potential which, in certain limits, took the form of the scatterer density ρ times the …
