Abstract

ABSTRACTThe paper is concerned with the solution of the algebraic problems arising in the partial wave treatment of electron-hydrogen atom collisions. Explicitly antisymmetrized wave functions are used throughout. The boundary conditions are written in S-matrix notation and expressions for total and differential cross-sections obtained. The algebraic coefficients fλ and gλ occurring in the continuous state Hartree-Fock equations are expressed in terms of Racah coefficients, and tabulated as functions of the total angular momentum for atomic s, p and d electrons and all angular momenta of the scattered electron. Expressions are given for the calculation of first-order corrections to the results obtained using approximate wave functions.
