Born approximation [′bȯrn ə·präk·sə′mā·shən]
(quantum mechanics)
A method used for the computation of cross sections in scattering problems; the interactions are treated as perturbations of free-particle systems.

3) (The parameter b is equal to zero for the standard vector--axial vector type of weak interactions, and the parameter D is related to time-odd correlations of spin and momenta, therefore in the first Born approximation, it is defined by a time reversal violating process.
Using this in conjunction with the Born approximation, t = v, the optical potential then becomes v(r) = [[2[pi][h.
The numerical data in Tables 1 and 2 can be extended to higher incident energies by using the well known Bethe formula [10] for the plane-wave Born approximation for fast (but nonrelativistic) incident electrons.
