Abstract
The recently proposed semiempirical expression by Jhanwar et al. for ionization cross section per unit energy range has been utilized to calculate the energy spetrum of secondary electrons, total ionization cross sections, stopping power, and mean energy expended per ion pair for the collision of electrons with hydrogen molecules in the energy range of 50 eV–10 keV. Satisfactory agreement with the available experimental data and theoretical results has been obtained.Keywords
