VSWF expansions in terms of SSWF
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
From
|
|
\cite necada_multiple-scattering_2021, eq. (2.19)
|
|
\f[
|
|
\wfkcout_{\tau lm}\left(\kappa (\vect r - \vect r_1) \right) =
|
|
\sum_{\tau'l'm'} \tropSr{\kappa(\vect r_2 - \vect r_1)}_{\tau l m;\tau'l'm} \wfkcreg_{\tau'l'm'}(\vect r -\vect r_2),
|
|
\qquad |\vect r -\vect r_2| < |\vect r_1 - \vect r_2|,
|
|
\f]
|
|
setting \f$ \vect r = \vect r_2\f$ and considering that
|
|
\f$ \wfkcreg_{\tau'l'm'}(\vect 0) \ne \vect 0 \f$ only for electric dipole waves (\f$ \tau = \mathrm{E}, l=1 \f$),
|
|
we have
|
|
\f[
|
|
\wfkcout_{\tau lm}\left(\kappa (\vect r - \vect r_1) \right) =
|
|
\sum_{m'} \tropSr{\kappa(\vect r - \vect r_1)}_{\tau l m;\mathrm{E}1m} \wfkcreg_{\mathrm{E}1m'}(\vect 0),
|
|
\qquad \vect r \ne \vect r_1 .
|
|
\f]
|
|
Combining this with
|
|
\cite necada_multiple-scattering_2021, eq. (2.25)
|
|
\f[
|
|
\tropSr{\vect d}_{\tau l m; \tau' l' m'} = \sum_{\lambda =|l-l'|+|\tau-\tau'|}^{l+l'}
|
|
C^{\lambda}_{\tau l m;\tau' l'm'} \underbrace{ \spharm{\lambda}{m-m'}(\uvec d) h_\lambda^{(1)}(d)}_{\sswfout_\lambda^{m-m'}(\vect d)},
|
|
\f]
|
|
we get
|
|
\f[
|
|
\wfkcout_{\tau lm}(\vect d) = \sum_{m'=-1}^1 \wfkcreg_{\mathrm{E}1m'}(\vect 0)
|
|
\sum_{\lambda=l-1+|\tau-\tau'|}^{l+1}
|
|
C^\lambda_{\tau l m;\mathrm{E}1m'} \sswfout_\lambda^{m-m'}(\vect d).
|
|
\f]
|
|
Note that the VSWF components in this expression are given in global "cartesian" basis,
|
|
*not* the local orthonormal basis derived from spherical coordinates.
|
|
(This is mostly desirable, because in lattices we need to work with flat coordinates anyway.)
