Abstract
Total cross sections for electron scattering on molecules have been measured in the 75–3500-eV energy range by an absolute transmission method. The data are compared to other heavy gases, Xe, and Apparently different energy dependencies for these gases can be described by the same, simple four-parameter formula. A study of atomic total-cross-section parameters in the keV energy range for 15 atoms from H to W is presented.
