Differential cross sections for the 2s-3s excitation of hydrogen atoms by electron and positron impact are reported at two incident energies, 10 eV and 50 eV, using a distorted wave method based on the two potential model. Dramatic differences between the electron and positron results are noticed at both energies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
