Abstract

Differential cross sections for the elastic scattering of electrons from the ions Na+, Cs+, Mg2+, N3+ and Ar8+ have been calculated employing model- and pseudopotential and quantum-defect methods. Comparison with recent experiments showed satisfactory agreement for Na+ and N3+ but poorer agreement for Cs+ and Ar8+ targets. Generally, model-potential results were in better agreement with experiment than those obtained using pseudopotentials.
