contents We construct a unitary operator between Hilbert spaces of generalized eigenfunctions of Coulomb operators and the Laplace-Beltrami operator of hyperbolic space that intertwines their respective Poisson operators on $L^2(\mathbb{S}^{d-1})$. The constructed operator generalizes Fock's unitary transformation, originally defined between the discrete spectra of the attractive Coulomb operator and the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the sphere, to the setting of continuous spectra. Among other connections, this map explains why the scattering matrices are the same in these two different settings, and it also provides an explicit formula for the Poisson operator of the Coulomb Hamiltonian.
