The effect of the electron shell of the scattering atom on the asymmetry effect was investigated. Since experimental investigations exist on scattering under 90 deg , this case was also treated. The potential path in the atom interior was handled by the Hartree or Thomas-Fermi model. The calculation for this potential path causes no important difficulties. The application of suitable approximations for the potential path considered in the atom interior possesses the advantage that all integrals occurring can be carried out in the closed form and that the limiting case of the pure coulomb field can be obtained by the corresponding boundary passage in the results. The Born-Dirac collision method in the Sauter representation is especially suitable for the treatment of the asymmetry effect. Its advantage with respect to the Dalitz treatment of the Born-Dirac collision method is its simplicity and its complete sufficiency for the correct treatment of the asymmetry effect. (tr-auth)
