A phenomenological complex optical potential is used to investigate the elastic and inelastic scattering of electrons by Ca, Sr, Ba and Yb atoms in the energy range E
The electron impact excitation cross section for resonance transitions of Be+ and Mg+ is calculated by the diagonalisation method. The energies, effective quantum numbers, total and partial widths of resonances in cross sections are obtained. The partial and differential cross sections were also obtained. The total cross sections were compared with experiment and other calculations.
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.
