19. Here we do not adhere to the phase choice of Ref. 5. For single-channel scattering, the latter is most suited in order to get the optical theorem in close analogy with the three-dimensional case. Because we do not discuss this topic here, we have preferred the straightforward choice Eqs. (23) and (24).
