FEW CENTRE SCATTERING CALCULATIONS. I. PHYSICAL FORMULATIONS OF VARIATIONAL TREATMENTS OF ELECTRONIC EXCITATION OF FEW-CENTRE MOLECULES BY SLOW ELECTRON SCATTERING. Technical Note No. 2

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4773817
At present there are no theoretical methods of calculating cross sections for electronic excitation of small molecules by slow electrons unless the molecule is diatomic or approximately spherical. A number of procedures suitable for use with the Hulthens or Kohn variational methods and for few-center molecules are formulated, and a new expansion theorem is derived. The static centroidal method is the most promising of those examined. (auth)
