Description
We examine the time-dependent close-coupling (TDCC) approach to electron-impact single ionization of helium and study the convergence properties of our method. As an example, we compare our calculations to recent measurements of the triple differential cross sections from He after 102 eV electron impact, made for asymmetric electron energies and a variety of electron geometries. We find that our calculations compare well to the measurements and to convergent close-coupling calculations.
