Quantum scattering problems are standardly and effectively analyzed using time-independent stationary states, as demonstrated by numerous foundational frameworks and numerical approaches such as the Lippmann-Schwinger equation and S-matrix theory.

The analysis

The claim states that quantum scattering problems can be treated as time-independent using stationary states. Papers [0], [2], and [9] explicitly discuss and apply time-independent formalisms (such as the Lippmann-Schwinger equation and stationary scattering wave functions) to solve quantum scattering problems. No retrieved papers refute this fundamental and well-established method in quantum mechanics.
