Abstract

Numerical solutions of close-coupling equations from the Dirac Hamiltonian, without including the correlation and Lagrangian multiplier terms, are obtained by the method of outward and inward integrations, analogous to the one used in the nonrelativistic calculation. As an illustrative example, we present the results of electron-cesium scattering for

J = 0
