The Distorted-Wave Born Approach for Calculating Electron-Impact Ionization of Molecules
Figure 7
Experimental FDCSs for the sum of the orbitals of formic acid as a function of the ejected electron angle, where (a) and (b) have 100 eV incident energy electrons and (c) and (d) have 250 eV incident energy electrons. The ejected electron energy is 10 eV for all cases. The scattered electron angles are 10 (for (a) and (c)) and 15 (for (b) and (d)). The experiment results are compared with M3DW (dashed line) and M3DW-CPE (solid line) calculations for the orbital only. The experimental and theoretical data are normalized to the recoil peak.
