Abstract

A new model differential cross section is proposed for describing elastic scattering of electrons in simulating the passage of electrons through a substance by the Monte Carlo method. This differential cross section correctly describes the first and second transport scattering cross sections, but is characterized by the total elastic scattering cross section much smaller than the actual value of the total elastic scattering cross section. The application of this differential cross section makes it possible to considerably reduce the number of elastic collisions in the Monte Carlo simulation of passage of electrons in a substance and to model the passage of high-energy electrons using the individual collision model.
