Calculation of spin-dependent observables in electron-sodium scattering using the coupled-channel optical method

Abstract

The calculations of the 3{sup 2}S and 3{sup 2}P spin asymmetries and the angular momentum for singlet and triplet scattering for projectile energies of 10 and 20 eV is presented. Together these observables give a most stringent test of any electron-atom scattering theory. An excellent agreement was found between the results of the coupled-channel optical method and experiment, which for the spin asymmetries can only be obtained by a good description of the couplings between the lower-lying target states and the target continuum. 10 refs., 2 figs.
