Elastic and excitation cross sections for electron - nitrous oxide collisions

Abstract: In this work, we present a theoretical study of elastic and inelastic electron - collisions in the low and intermediate incident energy range. More specifically, we report differential and integral cross sections for the elastic scattering in the 5 to 80 eV range as well as the excitation cross sections for the transitions leading to the lowest and states in the 10 to 100 eV range. The Born-closure Schwinger variational method was applied for the elastic scatterings whereas the distorted-wave method was use… Show more

“…Moreover, a second small resonance feature at around 8 eV is also seen in our calculated ICS, in accordance with the SEP studies of Sarpal et al 18 and Winstead and McKoy 21. An analysis of the calculated partial contributions from the 2 Σ, 2 Π, and 2 Δ symmetries to the ICS (not shown) reveals that the resonance at around 8 eV is of 2 Σ symmetry and corresponds to that located at 13 eV, predicted by Michelin et al 17 and Sarpal et al 18 using the SE level of approximation. The shift of about 5 eV to lower energies is caused by the introduction of V cp in our calculation.…”

“…At 3 eV, our calculation reproduces successfully the broad maximum at scattering angles around 50–60°. This feature was not seen in the previous calculated DCS using the SE 17, 19 and SEP 20, 21 approximations. Winstead and McKoy suspected that the qualitative disagreement between their calculated DCS and the experimental data could be due to the neglect of the vibrational degrees of freedom in their study.…”
