Abstract
A theoretical investigation of differential, integrated elastic, inelastic, transport (momentum transfer & viscosity), grand total (elastic+inelastic) and total ionisation cross-sections along with the Sherman functions for the scattering of electron and positron by hydrogen cyanide (HCN) in the energy range 1 e V − 1 MeV are presented in this report. We perform calculations using the single scattering independent atom model (IAM) and IAM with screening correction (IAMS). The scattering observables are calculated using a complex optical model potential in the framework of the Dirac partial wave analysis (DPWA). The inclusion of screening correction to the IAM appreciably improves the cross-sections, especially at low-impact energies. Our calculated results are compared with the available experimental and theoretical works found in the literature. Our present computational data agree well with prior results.
