Notes:
The elastic forward scattering of high-energy electrons from molecules has been studied in the second Born approximation. An integral transformation has been adopted to evaluate the second Born integrals analytically without explicit use of molecular wave functions. In the high-energy limit, the differential cross section for the forward scattering is expressed in terms of electric dipole and quadrupole moments, the second moment of charge distribution with respect to the molecular center, and transition dipole moments. All these quantities are shown to be computable from molecular electron densities in the ground state.
