Abstract

We continue the study of scattering theory for the system consisting of a Schrödinger equation and a wave equation with a Yukawa type coupling in space dimension 3. In previous papers, we proved the existence of modified wave operators for that system with no size restriction on the data and we determined the asymptotic behaviour in time of solutions in the range of the wave operators, first under a support condition on the Schrödinger asymptotic state and then without that condition, but for solutions of relatively low regularity. Here we extend the latter result to the case of more regular solutions.
