Abstract

Recently Isik et al (2016 J. Phys B: At. Mol. Opt. Phys. 49 065203) performed measurements of the triple differential cross sections (TDCSs) of methane by electron impact. Their data clearly show that post-collisional interaction (PCI) effects are present in the angular distributions of ejected electrons. A model describing the ejected electron by a distorted wave and including PCI is applied for the single ionization of atomic targets and for methane. Extensive comparisons between this model and other previous models are made with available experiments.
