A partial-wave analysis of the solution of the Dirac equation in a Coulomb field is used to calculate inelastic scattering from a nucleus treated as an inhomogeneous charged liquid drop. Using charge density functions obtained from elastic electron scatiering, the form factors for quadrupole excitation of the nuclei Ni/sup 58,60/ and Sr/sup 88/ are calculated and found to display better agreement with experimental results than the usual Born approximation. To show the expected effects of a large Coulomb field, a similar calculation for Bi/ sup 209/ is also included. (auth)
