Abstract
A set of formulae, which is currently used to calculate radiative effects in electron scattering experiments, is discussed. Since these formulae contain approximations which fail to describe radiation losses properly a modified set is proposed. The radiation unfolding procedure of elastically scattered electrons is investigated in detail, account is taken of the different sets of formulae and of the finite energy resolution. The cross sections extracted from measured spectra depend on the formulae used in the unfolding procedure. For two measured Bi spectra they differ by up to 11%. With the modified set of formulae the unfolding procedure yields the same cross section as the application of the correction factor to the integrated area under the measured spectrum.
