Absolute angle-differential cross sections for electron-impact excitation of neon atoms from threshold to 19.5 eV

Abstract: Absolute angle-differential cross sections for electron-impact excitation of neon atoms to the four levels with the (2p 5 3s) configuration have been determined both experimentally and theoretically for incident energies from threshold up to 19.5 eV at scattering angles of 135 • and 180 • . Excellent agreement between the experimental data and theoretical predictions, obtained by a Breit-Pauli B-spline R-matrix method with non-orthogonal orbitals, has been found in terms of both absolute values and the energie… Show more

“…Data for the electron impact excitation are available for neon [7]. The overall accuracy of cross sections in comparison to experimental data is high for the excitation to the lowest excited levels [8] but differs close to threshold energies. The rate coefficient, however, is less affected due to the integration over the energy distribution function.…”

“…For the electron excitation cross sections and Einstein coefficients, there exists an extensive and consistent dataset from B-spline Breit-Pauli R-Matrix (BSRM) close-coupling calculations [11,12]. These data are combined with those from the atomic line database NIST [13].…”

“…This is a reasonable choice, given that the energy dependence of the cross sections is often known more accurately than the absolute scale (see, for example, ref. [16]), thereby allowing for an efficient implementation in the model. The relative width (root mean-square-variance, rms, divided by expectation value) of the prior distributions for the scale parameters is listed in table 1.…”
