Abstract: (Elsevier)
Scattering two-particle states of the sine-Gordon and sinh-Gordon models in D + 1 dimensions are investigated for all values of the coupling constant with the Gaussian wave-functional approach. In 1 + 1 and 2 + 1 dimensions, the phase shifts of the scattering states are obtained. We find that the phase shifts are positive for the sine-Gordon field theory and negative for the sinh-Gordon field theory. In the higher dimensions, the phase shifts vanish, which is coincident with the triviality of the two field theories.
