Abstract
A model based on the local spin density approximation has been suggested to describe elastic potential electron scattering by atoms with half-filled subshells. This model is applied to the case of electron scattering by such atoms having one s1-, p3-, d5- or f7-subshell (i.e. Ag, Sb, Mn and Eu). The angular dependences of asymmetry functions and differential cross sections (DCSs) both with and without taking into account absorption effects, integral elastic, absorption, diffusion and viscosity cross sections have been calculated at the 10 eV collision energy. Similar characteristics have been calculated for the Mn atom at the 20 eV energy. DCSs are calculated both in the local (spin-unpolarized) and local spin density (spin-polarized) approximations and compared with each other. Some cross sections for Ag, Mn, Eu atoms are compared with available experimental and theoretical data.
