Abstract

The scattering of slow electrons by hydrogen molecules has been studied in the laboratory-frame close-coupling approximation. The exchange kernel is replaced by a local model exchange potential as used by Sur and Ghosh (1983). The effect of polarisation is included through the Henry-Lane potential. The results for elastic, rotational excitation and total cross sections are reported. Fair agreement of the present results with recent measurements and other theoretical results has been obtained.
