LINO, J.L.S.. Elastic cross sections for intermediate-energy e¯ - CH₄ collisions. Rev. mex. fis. [online]. 2003, vol.49, n.1, pp.6-8. ISSN 0035-001X.

We report an application of the Schwinger variational principle with plane waves as trial basis set. Elastic differential cross sections (DCS) for the scattering of electrons by CH₄ in the 10 to 100 eV energy range are available and our differential cross sections are found to be in reasonable agreement with existing measurements.

Keywords : Schwinger; electron; methane.
