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.

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 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.

Differential and integral cross sections for elastic scattering of electron by NH3 molecule are investigated for the energy ranging from 10 eV to 20 keV.  The calculations are carried out in the framework of partial wave formalism describing the target molecule by means of one center molecular Hartree-Fock functions.  A spherical complex optical potential used includes a static part – obtained here numerically from quantum calculation – and fine effects like correlation, polarization and exchange potentials. The results obtained in this model point out clearly the role played by the exchange and the correlation-polarization contributions in particular at lower scattering angles and lower incident energies. Both differential and integral cross sections obtained are compared with a large set of experimental data available in the literature and well agreement is found throughout the scattering angles and whole energy range investigated here.

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 relativistic description of the proton-nucleus elastic scattering can be considered within the framework of a relativistic optical potential model. The elastic scattering of proton with the nuclei 12 C , 16 O , 20 Ne , and 24 Mg at 800 MeV and 1.04 GeV are studied for relativistic and nonrelativistic treatments. The real optical potentials and the differential cross sections of these reactions are calculated. The obtained results are compared with the corresponding results obtained from the calculation depending on the Woods–Saxon optical potential which were adjusted to fit the experimental data. The present results are in good agreement with the experimental data.

Calculation of electron impact total and ionization cross sections for Sr, Y, Ru, Pd, and Ag atoms were performed using spherical complex optical potential and complex scattering potential-ionization contribution methods. The complex optical potential model is formulated from the target parameters and the atomic charge density. The spherical charge densities are in turn derived from the Roothaan–Hartree–Fock wavefunctions defining the atomic orbital of the target. In the present study cross sections are computed in the energy range from ionization threshold to 2000 eV. The results obtained are compared with other theories and measurements wherever available and were found to be quite consistent and uniform. In general, present data show an overall reasonable agreement with other results. Dependence of total cross sections on the number of target electrons and peak of ionization cross section on target parameters were also found to be consistent with previous observations.

For incident neutron energies between 20 MeV and 10 GeV the total neutron–nucleus [Formula: see text] cross sections were calculated using Glauber theory. Remarkably good agreement between experiment and theory was found at energies above 250 MeV. Using the same formalism with identical nuclear parameters, the π−–C cross sections were calculated for incident pion energies near the (3, 3) resonance. In this case, however, good agreement between theory and experiment was found for pion energies above 150 MeV.
