On causality, unitarity and perturbative expansions — •Igor Danilkin, Ashot Gasparyan, and Matthias Lutz — GSI, Planck Str. 1, 64291 Darmstadt, Germany

We present a pedagogical case study how to combine micro-causality and unitarity based on a perturbative approach [1]. The method we advocate constructs an analytic extrapolation of partial-wave scattering amplitudes that is constrained by the unitarity condition. Suitably constructed conformal mappings help to arrive at a systematic approximation of the scattering amplitude. The technique is illustrated at hand of a Yukawa interaction. The typical case of a superposition of strong short-range and weak long-range forces is investigated.
