abstract
A generalized scattering amplitude where momenta of incoming-particles and outgoing-particles as well as positions of incoming-particles and outgoing-particles are specified is formulated. Idealistic beams and idealistic measuring instruments where momenta and positions satisfy minimum uncertainty are studied with a use of minimum wave packets, coherent states. In the present work, we show general features of the generalized scattering amplitudes based on ${\phi}^4$ theory. We give a proof of completeness of many body states, asymptotic behaviors in the large distance region, and factorization of the amplitudes. Despite of the non-orthogonal properties of wave packets, we found that the probability interpretation is verified. A differential probability depends upon the wave packet size but a total probability that is integrated in the final states is independent from the size of final state wave packet and becomes universal. Few body amplitudes are studied as examples.
