Some aspects of R matrix theory that derive from a finite element method implementation of a hyperspherical coordinate formulation of the quantum mechanical three‐body problem are analyzed with a view of designing suitable algorithms. Propagation of the R matrix from a hyperspherical surface to asymptotically appropriate wave fronts is given special attention.
