 Solution

Write $u=kr-l\pi /2$. Sincethe outgoing-to-incoming coefficient ratio is $-S_l$. Hence the Partial-wave S-matrix element and scattering phase shift areThe scattering length from a partial-wave S-matrix is

For the stated S-wave scattering solution, $\tanh (\lambda r)\to 1$ as $r\to \infty$, soUsing the same incoming/outgoing convention,Therefore

The analytic continuation of $S_0$ has a bound-state pole of the scattering amplitude at $k=i\lambda$ in the upper half-plane. Since $E={\hslash }^2{k}^2/(2m)$, this givesTo extract the bound-state wavefunction, multiply the scattering solution by $k-i\lambda$ and take the pole limit:Thus the unnormalized exterior solution isThese data are collected in the Hyperbolic-tangent S-wave exterior solution.
