Popis: A non-perturbative time-dependent theory of scattering a spinless particle on a one-dimensional $\delta$-potential barrier (no bound state) is presented, based on an exact analysis of the asymptotes of non-stationary states in the momentum representation. Its main results, to paraphrase John Taylor, are as follows: first, ``... for [not] every vector $|\psi_{in}\rangle$ in $\mathcal{H}$ there is some actual orbit $U(t)|\psi\rangle$ that is asymptotic to the free orbit $U^0(t)|\psi_{in}\rangle$ as $t\to -\infty$; and likewise for every $|\psi_{out}\rangle$ as $t\to +\infty$''; secondly, not all `free orbits' $U^0(t)|\psi_{in}\rangle$ and $U^0(t)|\psi_{out}\rangle$ to which the `real orbit' (non-stationary state) $U(t)|\psi\rangle$ tends asymptotically when $t\to -\infty$ and $t\to +\infty$, describe free dynamics; thirdly, `free orbits', which are asymptotes of states of `real orbits' and describe free dynamics, form a reducible space in which a superselection rule by the sign of the particle momentum at $t\to\mp\infty$ operates.
Comment: 17 pages, this is final version, more about superselection operator in x-representation
