Abstract

The best three-channel projectile-inelastic close-coupling approximation (CCA) is used to study the resonances in positronium (Ps) and hydrogen (H) scattering at the energy region below the inelastic threshold. The $s$-wave elastic phase shifts and $s$-wave elastic cross sections are studied using the static-exchange, two- and three-channel projectile-inelastic CCA for both the singlet (+) and triplet $(\ensuremath{-})$ channels. The singlet resonances detected using different CCA schemes confirm previous predictions [Drachman and Houston, Phys. Rev. A 12, 885 (1975); Page, J. Phys. B. 9, 1111 (1976)]. We report a resonance in the triplet channel too using the present three-channel CCA scheme.
