Several ionization and dissociation channels of electron interaction with the methane molecule are studied using the recently discovered robust scaling law [D. A. Erwin and J. A. Kunc, Phys. Rev. A 72, 052719 (2005)], other experimentally observed relationships between the ionization and dissociation channels, and the most recent information about the processes. The resulting cross sections for the channels are given in the form of analytical expressions valid at all nonrelativistic energies.
