Abstract

The method of complex-coordinate rotation is applied to investigate resonances in positron scattering by helium ions. Here we present results for high-angular-momentum states (L=26). Together with the earlier values for the L=0 and 1 states, these stabilized complex eigenvalues exhibit a regular pattern. We also calculate some narrow S-wave resonances below the excited positronium (N=2) threshold. Our converged results for the first S state lying above the He+ (n=5) threshold differ substantially from the calculation by Igarashi and Shimamura [Phys. Rev. A 56, 4733 (1997)].
