Abstract
We investigate the behavior of Regge poles in the low energy limit. With the use of small argument asymptotics of the spherical Hankel functions, we show that for a finite square well potential, the associated Regge poles tend to the spectral points of the limiting self-adjoint problem. This is generalized to a compactly supported potential by applying a resolvent argument to the difference of the nonzero and zero energy wavefunctions. Furthermore, by an integral equation method we prove analogous results for a potential such that |(1+r)U(r)| is integrable. This confirms the experimental results which show that Regge poles formed during low energy electron elastic scattering become stable bound states.
