“…[7][8][9][10][11] For completeness, we also note some electron-photon coincidence studies on the 3 1 P state of Mg 5,6,12 and a very recent superelastic experiment on this same electronic state. 13 In terms of the ionisation process, we note total ionisation cross section (TICS) measurement results from Refs. 14-16. From the theoretical perspective, there has been significantly more work, with only the most recent and/or relevant papers now listed.…”

We report the results from the application of our optical potential and relativistic optical potential (ROP) methods to electron-magnesium scattering. The energy range of this study was 0-5000 eV, with the results for the integral elastic cross sections, summed discrete electronic-state excitation integral cross sections, momentum transfer cross sections, and total ionisation cross sections being reported. Where possible, we compare the present results to the available experimental data and to the earlier results from close coupling and R-matrix type computations. Typically, a quite fair level of accord is found between our ROP calculations and the earlier theoretical and experimental cross sections. Additionally, from the assembled database, we provide for the modeling community some recommended cross section sets for use in their simulations, in which magnesium is a constituent. Electron transport coefficients are subsequently calculated for reduced electric fields ranging from 0.1 to 1000 Td using a multiterm solution of Boltzmann's equation. Substantial differences in the transport coefficients between the ROP calculations and the recommended cross sections are observed over the range of fields considered, clearly illustrating the importance of the veracity of the database in the simulations.

A modular, customizable, and low-cost experimental control system for electron spectrometers is described. LabVIEW is used to interface with a suite of Arduino-controlled power supplies, detectors, and stepper motors enabling a variety of different types of measurements to be performed. The structure of the LabVIEW control system and the general design of the Arduino-controlled modules are described. Examples of results from electron scattering and electron impact ionization experiments performed using this control system are presented.
