Abstract
The differential scattering cross section measurements for selected energies between 2 and 19 eV have been re-analysed to obtain phaseshifts and associated errors which are consistent with the measurements. The phaseshifts obtained from different angular distribution measurements are shown to be consistent with each other within their associated errors and are also consistent with the best available phaseshifts determined by theory. These phaseshifts have also been used to determine total and momentum transfer cross sections which are compared with direct determinations of these quantities. The re-analysis of the differential cross section measurements does not reduce the uncertainty which at present exists in the total cross section at lower energies.Keywords
