Scattering of relativistic particles by a Coulomb field in two dimensions

The scattering of relativistic Dirac particles by a Coulomb field $\pm Ze^2/r$ in two dimensions is studied and the scattering amplitude is obtained as a partial wave series. For small $Z$ the series can be summed up approximately to give a closed form. The result, though being aproximate, exhibites some nonperturbative feature and cannot be obtained from perturbative quantum electrodynamics at the tree level.
