Title: Electron-impact excitation cross sections for the b /sup 3/. sigma. /sub u//sup +/ state of H/sub 2/

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. A; (United States)

Differential and integral cross sections for electron-impact excitation of the b /sup 3/..sigma../sub u//sup +/ state of H/sub 2/ have been determined in the 20--100-eV impact energy region. The calibration of the cross sections was achieved through the H/sub 2/ elastic scattering cross sections, which in turn were normalized to absolute He elastic scattering cross sections. Comparison is made with available experimental data and with theoretical results applying Born-Ochkur-Rudge, distorted-wave, and close-coupling approximations.
