Threshold behavior of positronium formation in positron-alkali-metal scattering

We consider positron scattering on the alkali-metal atoms of Li, Na, and K at very low energies, where only the elastic scattering and positronium formation in the ground state are the two open channels. Utilizing the recently developed two-center convergent close-coupling method [ Lugovskoy, Kadyro...
