Theoretical Results

Abstract The unitarised Eikonal Born series (UEBS) method has been used successfully by Byron et al. for elastic scattering of electrons and positrons by hydrogen atoms. Here an attempt is made to apply the UEBS method in the case of elastic scattering of electrons by helium atoms. The total and differential cross sections are calculated for the energy range 100-700 eV. The results are compared with experimental and other theoretical results. It is found that the results obtained with the UEBS method agree best with the experimental results.

A simplification of the second Born approximation due to Massey & Mohr is used to calculate the differential cross-sections for the elastic scattering of fast electrons and fast positrons by hydrogen atoms and helium atoms, the method of Dalitz being applied to evaluate all the relevant integrals. Although the logarithmic singularity which is found in the differential cross-section for zero-angle scattering is shown to be absent in the true second Born approximation the use of the simplification of this approximation is justified at sufficiently high impact energies provided the angle of scattering is not too small. The results of the calculations for incident electrons in helium are compared with the available experimental data.

Analytical Expressions

We present a closed-form description that enables us to obtain the analytical expressions for the elastic scattering and dissociation differential cross-sections of deuterons and 3H-nuclei by heavy target nuclei. The resulting expressions are used to analyze the data for the 110 MeV deuterons elastically scattered on 208Pb-nuclei. The dissociation cross-sections of deuterons and 3H-nuclei are the oscillating functions of the scattering angle of the released two- and three-nucleon-particle system center-of-mass.

Scattering Cross

Differential cross sections for elastic scattering and ionization in positron–argon collisions as a function of energy (40–150 eV) are reported at 60°. Of particular interest is the energy range 55–60 eV, where earlier measurements by the Detroit group found a drop in the elastic-scattering cross section of a factor of 2. This structure has been tentatively attributed to a cross channel-coupling effect with an open inelastic-scattering channel, most likely ionization. Our results indicate that ionization remains an important channel over the same energy range and only begins to decrease at an energy above 60 eV.
