The distribution in energy and angle of 20 to 25 kv electrons scattered by Al, Ag, and Au evaporated films was measured with an electron velocity analyser of Mollenstedt type. The energy resolution is about 5 x 10/sup -//sup 5/ , and the angular resolution better than 5 x 10/sup -//sup 4/ radian. The angular distribution of the characteristic energy loss was compared with Ferrell's calculation. The comparison shows that the experimental result is consistent with a simple BohmPines' approach provided that a correction is made for finite resolution of both energy and angle. (auth)
