Inelastic scattering and stopping power for electrons in O 2 and O 3 at intermediate and high energies, 0.3–5 keV

In this study, the stopping power for electrons in O 2 and O 3 molecules is reported for incident energies ranging from 300 to 5000 eV. The present results have been obtained by combining the calculated inelastic electron scattering cross-sections with an experimental energy loss procedure. Calculat...

Description
Summary:In this study, the stopping power for electrons in O 2 and O 3 molecules is reported for incident energies ranging from 300 to 5000 eV. The present results have been obtained by combining the calculated inelastic electron scattering cross-sections with an experimental energy loss procedure. Calculations have been carried out by means of a quasifree absorption model whose reliability has been checked by comparison with the electron scattering total cross section measured in a transmission beam experiment. Results for O 2 are compared with high energy stopping power data available in the literature. For O 3, these are the first results of the stopping power for electrons.
