Abstract
Factorization relations for rotational inelastic differential cross sections and transition probabilities for collisional excitation of rigid polyatomic targets are discussed within the sudden approximation for the special case of symmetric top molecules. The excitation of initially rotating spherical top molecules by electron impact at intermediate energies is studied in detail and the rotational rainbow structure is analysed.
