| Popis: | The exciton-exciton effective scattering which rules the time evolution of two excitons is studied as a function of initial momentum difference, scattering angle and electron-to-hole mass ratio. We show that this effective scattering can collapse for energy-conserving configurations provided that the difference between the two initial exciton momenta is larger than a threshold value. Sizeable scatterings then exist in the forward direction only. We even find that, for an electron-to-hole mass ratio close to 1/2, the exciton-exciton effective scattering stays close to zero in all directions when the difference between the initial exciton momenta has a very specific value. This unexpected but quite remarkable collapse comes from tricky compensation between direct and exchange Coulomb processes which originates from the fundamental undistinguishability of the exciton fermionic components.
