Abstract: | The total (elastic and inelastic) intensity of electrons scattered by CO2 was measured in the s range of 1 to 12 Å?1 and compared with the theoretical intensity calculated from the Hartree-Fock molecular wave function and those calculated for the independent-atom-model (IAM ) molecule. In the range of s ? 4 Å?1 the electron correlation effect on the total scattered intensity was found to be represented by that for the IAM molecule. |
