Abstract
Differential and total cross sections for elastic scattering of electrons from atomic hydrogen have been calculated using the full eikonal approximation. The eikonal results for 50-, 100-, and 200-eV incident electrons are compared with other theoretical calculations and with recent experimental data. It is found that the full eikonal approximation predicts both small-angle differential cross sections and total cross sections, which are in better agreement with experiment than either the Born or Glauber results.Keywords
