Elastische Elektronenstreuung an Titan bei 33 bis 58 MeV

Cross sections for elastic electron scattering were measured for titanium relative to carbon and beryllium at the Darmstadt electron linear accelerator. The energy and angle were varied from 33 to 58 MeV and from 33° to 165°. Phase shift calculations of the scattering cross section show that the rms-radiusR _m determined from the measurements is almost independent of specific assumptions about the charge distribution. For the natural isotopic mixture of titanium the measurements yieldR _m=(3.60±0.04) fm. This result agrees well with measurements of the (2p-1s)-transition energy in the muon-titanium-atom.
