Calculation of the free-free transitions in the electron-hydrogen scattering S-wave model

Atomic Physics 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

The S-wave model of electron-hydrogen scattering is evaluated using the convergent close-coupling method with an emphasis on scattering from excited states including an initial state from the target continuum. Convergence is found for discrete excitations and the elastic free-free transition. The latter is particularly interesting given the corresponding potential matrix elements are divergent.
