- Does the differential scattering cross section for
- coulomb scattering force a point particle interpretation
- of the interaction process?
-
- Is it possible to construct an extended (to some extent)
- nonlinear field interaction (in the small) that gives
- the coulomb scattering cross section (in the large).
-
- If so, what is the class of nonlinear fields that admit
- such solutions?
