The hypervirial theorem was first introduced for bound-state systems and subsequently extended to oneelectron scattering problems. Electron-atom collisions are considered, and the appropriate form of the hypervirial theorem is derived. Its relation to the original formulation is discussed. Application is made to the electron-hydrogen problem. Both elastic and inelastic collisions are investigated. (auth)
