Absolute elastic cross-sections for low-energy electron scattering from tetrahydrofuran

Abstract

We present results for elastic electron collision cross-sections with tetrahydrofuran (C4H8O) in the energy range of 6.5–50 eV. The absolute crosssections are determined from crossed beam measurements using the relative flow technique and cover the angular range between 10◦ and 130◦. Integral and momentum transfer cross-sections have also been derived from these results. The data, where possible, are compared to recent experimental results and theoretical calculations. Show more
