Abstract: Let $A_q(alph{a}^{\prime },alpha,k)$ be the scattering amplitude, corresponding to a local potential $q(x)$, $xin{R}^3$, $q(x)=0$ for $|x|>a$, where $a>0$ is a fixed number, $alph{a}^{\prime },alphain{S}^2$ are unit vectors, $S^2$ is the unit sphere in $R^3$, $alpha$ is the direction of the incident wave, $k^2>0$ is the energy. We prove that given an arbitrary function $f(alph{a}^{\prime })in{L}^2(S^2)$, an arbitrary fixed $alph{a}_{0}in{S}^2$, an arbitrary fixed $k>0$, and an arbitrary small $ve>0$, there exists a potential $q(x)in{L}^2(D)$, where $Dsubset{R}^3$ is a bounded domain such that �ee |A_q(alpha',alpha_0,k)-f(alpha')|_{L^2(S^2)}<ve. ag{$ast$}eee The potential $q$, for which $(ast)$ holds, is nonunique. We give an method for finding $q$, and a formula for such a $q$.
