Abstract
In this work, a theoretical study on electron-CF collisions in the low- and intermediate-energy range is reported. More specifically, calculated elastic differential, integral, and momentum-transfer cross sections as well as grand total (elastic and inelastic) and absorption cross sections are presented in the (1--500)-eV energy range. A complex optical potential is used to represent the electron-molecule interaction dynamics, while the Schwinger variational iterative method combined with the distorted-wave approximation is used to solve the scattering equations. Comparison of the present results with existing experimental and theoretical data for electron collisions with NO (an isoelectronic molecule of CF) is made.
