Cross sections for electron scattering by methylfluoride (CH3F) in the low- and intermediate-energy ranges uri icon

abstract

  • We report a theoretical study on electron scattering by methylfluoride (CH3F) in the intermediate-energy range. Calculated elastic differential, integral, and momentum-transfer, as well as grand-total (elastic + inelastic) and total absorption cross sections are reported for impact energies ranging from 15 to 500 eV. A complex optical potential is used to represent the electron-molecule interaction dynamics. A theoretical method based on the single-center-expansion close-coupling framework and corrected by the Pad approximant technique is used to solve the scattering equations. The comparison of our calculated results with experimental and other available theoretical data is encouraging. 2014 Elsevier B.V.
