Abstract
The absolute total cross section for electron scattering on CH3SH molecules has been measured in a linear electron-transmission experiment for impact energies between 0.6 eV and 250 eV. No theoretical or experimental total cross section data are available for comparison. The obtained total cross section has an energy dependence which is typical for polar molecules. Static electric dipole polarizability of methanethiol has been estimated using a correlation of electron-scattering total cross section with target polarizability. The polarizability of CH3SH thus obtained is in good agreement with values derived by empirical methods.
