Resonances in Electron and Atom Scattering by Molecules. II. Results of Calculations

详细

We describe the main features of the resonant scattering of electrons by molecules and calculate the parameters of the resonances within the framework of two different approaches: (1) the theory of collisions in a two-body system (where it is applicable); (2) the quantum theory of scattering in a fewbody system based on the Faddeev–Yakubovsky equations. We present the results of calculations of the resonant cross sections of electronic and atomic collisions with molecules and compare the obtained results with the available experimental data, as well as with the results of calculations based on other approximations. In addition, we discuss some biological applications (e.g., the properties of biopolymer molecules).
