We study a quasi-one-dimensional quantum wire with spin-orbit coupling (SOC), and containing a spinless impurity. We use a perturbative approach to leading order in SOC to obtain an effective Hamiltonian with decoupled sub-bands of size quantization. We calculate the scattering matrix using the Lippmann-Schwinger approach, accounting for the SU(2) gauge field generated by the SOC in the nanowire. The well-known dip in the conductance due to Fano interference is lifted from zero as a result of the spin scattering at the impurity. Going beyond the perturbative approach, we discuss numerical results of a tight-binding calculation in the continuous limit of fine discretization. We analyse the conductance dip behaviour as a function of the impurity and the SOC strength. We relate the numerical results to our toy-model calculation using an asymptotic-freedom approach.
