Abstract :
The scattering of a particle in quantum mechanics and the scattering of electromagnetic waves have certain analogies. The quantum scattering of a particle is analyzed as the interference among components characterized by number of reflections at the spherical boundary in analogy to the rainbow phenomena of light.
