Abstract

In this work, a theoretical study on elastic electron–CHx (x = 1, 2, 3, 4) collisions in the low-energy range is presented. More specifically, calculated elastic differential, integral and momentum transfer cross sections are reported in the (0.1–20) eV energy range. An optical potential formed by static, exchange and correlation–polarization contributions is used to represent the electron–target interaction, while the iterative Schwinger variational method is used to solve the scattering equations. Comparison of the calculated results for electron scattering by these targets shows an interesting trend.
