Abstract

We derive some general characteristics of the wave function representing a break-up event, in the asymptotic region. They have a strong bearing on the validity of some classical pictures, on the correlation between spatial and momentum variables that develops in the course of the dissociation process and on stringent requirements on the basis sets that are employed to approximate the wave function. Although other calculations are mentioned to underline the generality of our reasonings, we restrict most of the presentation, and all of the illustrations, to the case of ionization.
