Excitation of the W triplet Delta (u), W singlet Delta(u), B' triplet Sigma(u)(-), and a' singlet Epsilon(u)(-) States of N2 by Electron Impact.

Abstract

Electron energy-loss spectra have been obtained for N2 at 20.6 eV impact energy, and scattering angles of 10-138 degrees. The differential cross section for excitation of the W triplet Delta(u) state is the largest triplet-state cross section at all scattering angles, and is the largest inelastic cross section at angles greater than 70 degrees.
