Description

We have performed a relativistic treatment at low energy of electron-argon scattering which includes both polarisation and dynamic distortion effects. Our results are in excellent agreement with the experimentally derived momentum transfer cross section and scattering length, as well as with very recent measurements of the elastic differential cross section.
