In this work, a system including two neutral atoms confined to an external one-dimensional Morse potential was modelled. The problem can be relevant to cold atom physics, where neutral atoms may be effectively confined in radially tight tubes formed by optical lattices. The atom-atom interaction was considered as a nonlocal separable potential. Analytical expressions for wave-function as well as transition matrix were derived. The contributions of bound states and resonances in the complex energy plane were calculated. For numerical computations, the bound states in a system of argon gas confined in graphite were considered. Since the most important quantity in the low energy quantum scattering problems is “scattering length,” considering various values of Morse parameters, the behavior of this parameter was described versus the reduced energy.
