We present an experimental method for measuring low-energy (0–15 eV) electron transmission through bio-organic, solid, thin films at 300 K. This method is used to determine the energy of the first electronic transitions and the energy of the lowest conduction level of an electron in those solids. By measuring the density and thickness of the films precisely and analyzing the experimental data with a theoretical simulation model, it is possible, for the first time, to estimate values of the interaction cross sections for low-energy electrons in a biological solid. As an illustration of the method, results obtained for tryptophan are presented. [Translated by the journal]

Abstract– The interactions of low-energy electrons (<20 eV) with D-ribose molecules, namely, electron scattering and dissociative attachment, are studied. The results of these studies showed that the fragmentation of D-ribose molecules occurs effectively even at an electron energy close to zero. as well as in the energy range 5.50–9.50 eV. In the total cross section of electron scattering by molecules, resonance features at energies of 5.00–9.00 eV in the region of formation of ionic fragments C3H4O2–, C2H3O2–, OH–, associated with the destruction of molecular heterocycles, were experimentally discovered for the first time. The correlation of the features observed in the scattering and dissociative electron attachment cross sections is analyzed.

A summary is presented of the processes by which low energy electrons lose energy in moving through the atmosphere and estimates are given of the cross sections and energy loss rates. The mechanisms by which thermal electrons cool are described and the cooling efficiencies are listed.

An investigation was made of the process of dissociative excitation of a HgCl radical in the B2Σ+1/2 state due to collisions of low-energy electrons with HgCl2 and CH3HgCl molecules. Using the most intense band of the B2Σ+1/2 – X2Σ+1/2 system of the HgCl radical at 557 nm that corresponds to the ν′ = 0 to ν″ = 22 transition, emission cross sections were measured in the electron energy range 1–100 eV. The threshold electron energy for the observation of the B2Σ+1/2 – X2Σ+1/2 band system has been determined to be 7.0 and 8.0 eV for HgCl2 and CH3HgCl molecules, respectively.
