Abstract: We study the resonances of Schr"odinger operators on the infinite product

X = m a t h b b R^{d} i m e s m a t h b b S^{1}

, where

d

is odd,

m a t h b b S^{1}

is the unit circle, and the potential

V i n L^{i} n f t y_{c} (X)

. This paper shows that at high energy, resonances of the Schr"odinger operator

- D e l t a + V

on

X = m a t h b b R^{d} i m e s m a t h b b S^{1}

which are near the continuous spectrum are approximated by the resonances of

- D e l t a + V_{0}

on

X

, where the potential

V_{0}

given by averaging

V

over the unit circle. These resonances are, in turn, given in terms of the resonances of a Schr"odinger operator on

m a t h b b R^{d}

which lie in a bounded set. If the potential is smooth, we obtain improved localization of the resonances, particularly in the case of simple, rank one poles of the corresponding scattering resolvent on

m a t h b b R^{d}

. In that case, we obtain the leading order correction for the location of the corresponding high energy resonances. In addition to direct results about the location of resonances, we show that at high energies away from the resonances, the resolvent of the model operator
