"Triple" Scattering Experiment for Obtaining the Maximum Possible Information on Elastic Electron Scattering from Mercury

Abstract
Experimental results on the change of electron spin polarization due to elastic scattering are reported. Measurements with a mercury target have been made at electron energies between 30 and 350 eV at a scattering angle of 90°. In conjunction with results for the differential cross section and the Sherman function, such measurements yield the maximum possible information on the scattering process.
