The asymptotic accuracy of the Glauber multiple scattering formula is examined in the fixed scatterer approximation in one dimension. If the potentials overlap, the offshell corrections that dominate are asymptotically of the same order as the corrections to the eikonal approximation results. In the case of nonoverlapping potentials, the corrections to the Glauber formula arise from multiple scattering. The asymptotic behavior of these latter corrections depend essentially on the smoothness of the potentials.

It is pointed out that the usual forms of the impulse approximation and multiple scattering equations are deficient in a no-recoil limit. This is the limit in which the scatterer suffers negligable recoil during intermediate collisions leading to a given final state. A version of the impulse approxi
The relationship between Watson's multiple-scattering theory and Glauber's approximate multiple-scattering theory for high energies is explored, and a direct derivation of the latter from the former is presented in the context of potential scattering. The cancelations between all off-shell contribut
