Résumé : Gamow vectors provide a state vector or wave function to a quantum exponentially decaying state. The decaying states appear in quantum scattering when the S-matrix in the energy representation or the projection of the resolvent of the interaction Hamiltonian into a suitable subspace have simple poles in the complex plane. Three selected physical examples of Gamow vectors were presented to illustrate their physical significance. The central potential scattering, one-dimensional lattice with impurities in an electric Stark field, and a simple model for unstable Friedrichs particles were described.
