Abstract
The collisions of slow electrons (k2<2 Ryd) with gaseous molecules provide a very powerful experimental tool for the study of molecular properties and for correlating their structural characteristics with the specific ways in which energy is exchanged and stored during each encounter between the impinging light charge and the various molecular degrees of freedom. In the present study a generalab initio approach is described for treating the various parts of the interaction occurring between the bound molecular electrons and those in the continuum of the probing beam. It is shown that the results found with this method are closely correlated with our knowledge of the molecular structure which thus bears great significance when interpreting collisional events involving simple molecular targets.
