The collisions of a proton with a lithium atom are treated for the first time as a three-channel problem under the assumption that the elastic and hydrogen formation in non-excited, H(1s), and excited, H(2s), channels are open. The effect of polarization potentials of the target and hydrogen formation is considered. A one-valence-electron model for the target, based on the Clementi–Roetti Slater-type basis functions, as well as a modified coupled-static approximation are used to calculate the partial and total cross sections of seven partial waves (0 ≤ ℓ ≤ 6, where ℓ is the total angular momentum) at incident energies between 50 and 500 keV. Our values of the total cross section are in good agreement with previous results.

The investigations of the elastic and inelastic collisions of positrons with potassium atoms, K (1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p6, 4s), are presented. The potassium target atoms are described using Clementi–Roetti wavefunctions within the framework of the one-valence-electron model. The total cross-sections which correspond to eight partial cross-sections are calculated at 34 values of the incident energy [Formula: see text] using the coupled-static approximation. The resulting total elastic, ground- and excited-positronium formation cross-sections are compared with experimental results and those calculated by other authors. In the vicinity of 6 eV, and consistent with the measurements of Parikh et al.,2 our total cross-section displays a pronounced peak. We support the conclusion of McAlinden et al.15 and Hewitt et al.14 that above about 4 eV, positronium formation is mainly into excited states. Good agreement is obtained with the total cross-section measurements of Kwan et al.1 and Parikh et al.2 Positronium formation is not important above about 50 eV.

Absolute differential and integrated total cross sections for elastic electron scattering and vibrational excitation of molecular hydrogen have been measured at an incident energy of 1�5 eV. The results are presented and discussed with particular reference to a long-standing impasse which has existed between and within experiment and theory for the near-threshold excitation of the first vibrational state of H2. The integral vibrational cross section is in good agreement (�10%) with previous beam experiments and theory but is some 60% higher than the cross section derived from a swarm analysis.

The need for a reliable and comprehensive database of cross-sections for many atomic and molecular species is immense due to its key role in R&D domains such as plasma modelling, bio-chemical processes, medicine and many other natural and technological environments. Elastic, momentum transfer and total cross-sections of butanol and pentanol isomers by the impact of 6–5000 eV electrons are presented in this work. The calculations were performed by employing the spherical complex optical potential formalism along with single-centre expansion and group additivity rule. The investigations into the presence of isomeric variations reveal that they are more pronounced at low and intermediate energies. Elastic, total cross-sections (with the exception of n-pentanol) and momentum transfer cross-sections for all pentanol isomers are reported here for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. Our momentum transfer cross-sections for butanol isomers are in very good agreement with the experimental and theoretical values available, and in reasonable consensus for other cross-sections.

A simulation of extensive air showers above 1013 eV in which proton?proton scattering takes place partly through a medium-strong interaction is reported. In previous papers the simulation has been shown to be in fair agreement with observational data. The present version includes for the first time the assumption that the total cross section for proton-proton scattering increases with energy, as concluded in a recent paper by Yodh, Pal, and Trefil. The effect of the assumption is to make a noticeably better agreement between the simulation and the data.

The inelastic scattering of a proton with a caesium atom is treated for the first time as a three-channel problem within the framework of the improved coupled static approximation with the assumption that the ground (1s state) and excited (2s state) hydrogen formation channels are open for seven values of the total angular momentum, [Formula: see text] at energies between 50 and 500 keV. The Green’s function iterative numerical method is used to obtain the computer code to calculate iterative partial cross sections. This can be done through calculating the reactance matrix at different values of considered energies to obtain the transition matrix that gives partial and total cross sections. Present results give reasonable agreement with previous results.

By the use of a Regge parametrization of the one-particle inclusive cross section in the fragmentation region, an integral equation is obtained for the high-energy hadron–hadron inelastic cross section. The main assumptions used in the derivation of this integral equation are: (i) When two hadrons collide with sufficiently high energy, the elastic, inelastic, and total cross sections have the same energy dependence and (ii) Unitarity and factorization of Regge residues hold also for Reggeon–hadron 'amplitudes'. The solution of the integral equation, i.e., the function σinel(s) can be made constant or slowly increasing. For 'reasonable' values of all the parameters involved, it is in very good agreement with the high energy pp data.

Abstract Using modern multiloop calculation methods, we derive the analytical expressions for the total cross sections of the processes e−γ →$$ {e}^{-}X\overline{X} $$ e − X X ¯ with X = μ, γ or e at arbitrary energies. For the first two processes our results are expressed via classical polylogarithms. The cross section of e−γ → e−e−e+ is represented as a one-fold integral of complete elliptic integral K and logarithms. Using our results, we calculate the threshold and high-energy asymptotics and compare them with available results.

The flux-weighted averaged over the energy range of bremsstrahlung spectrum from reaction threshold up to the maximum energy of γ-ray cross-sections <σ(E)> of the 93Nb(γ,n)92mNb and 93Nb(γ,n)92tNb photonuclear reactions were determined by the gamma-activation method within the end-point bremsstrahlung energies Еmax = 36…91 MeV. Activation of 93Nb targets has been done by a bremsstrahlung flux using an electron beam at the linear accelerator LUE-40 at RDC "Accelerator" NSC KIPT. The γ-ray spectra of irradiated targets were registered using the HPGe detector with an energy resolution of 1.8 keV for the 1332 keV line 60Co. To control the bremsstrahlung flux we used natMo witness-targets and a reaction cross-section of 100Mo(γ,n)99Mo. Obtained experimental cross-sections <σ(E)> of the studied reactions are in good agreement with the theoretical values calculated within TALYS 1.9 code and the results of other authors. The averaged cross-sections <σ(E)> of the 93Nb(γ,n)92mNb and 93Nb(γ,n)92tNb reactions in the energy range 35...45 MeV and > 70 MeV were obtained for the first time.

The paper presents the results of measurement of the total cross sections for reactions 4,6He + Si and 6,7,9Li + Si in the beam energy range 5−50 A⋅MeV. The enhancements of the total cross sections for reaction 6He + Si compared with reaction 4He + Si, and 9Li + Si compared with reactions 6,7Li + Si have been observed. The performed microscopic analysis of total cross sections for reactions 6He + Si and 9Li + Si based on numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for external neutrons of projectile nuclei 6He and 9Li yielded good agreement with experimental data.

The total cross sections for the π+π− photoproduction on the deuteron were measured in an energy range of 0.8 to 1.1 GeV. The obtained total cross section for the quasi-free π+π− photoproduction on the deuteron was about 60 % of those on the free proton. The cross section for Δ++Δ− photoproduction was derived from the non-quasi-free π+π− photoproduction events. It was smaller than the previous data.
