Abstract

The Low scattering equation is studied in the one-meson approximation with both charged and neutral scalar meson theories. The general solution is found for each of these cases. It has the general character of a Wigner-Eisenbud dispersion formula and contains an infinite number of adjustable parameters. It follows that the Low equation, in this approximation at least, does not determine the scattering, but only expresses a property of the scattering which is independent of the internal structure of the scatterer.
