Abstract
A uniform semiclassical matrix has been developed for collisions of charged particles with rotating rigid dipoles, with use of first-order perturbation theory. The resulting expression is analytical, depending on tabulated functions, and trivial to calculate; it allows evaluations of quantum transitions in classically forbidden regions, and of quantum interference effects.
