Abstract
A projection operator approach is presented for the determination of energies and widths of shape resonances in low-energy heavy-ion scattering. The method produces essentially the same results as standard -matrix techniques in much less time, and works best for narrow virtual and quasibound resonances that could easily be missed by a scan. Examples for + are given.
