5 PREFACE Electron collisions with atoms and atomic ions have attracted considerable attention since the earliest days of this century. This is partly because these processes provide a means of studying the dynamics of many-particle quantum systems with known interactions at a fundamental level and partly because a detailed understanding of these processes is required in many other fields such as astrophysics, atmospheric physics, plasma physics, laser physics and electrical discharges in gases. In particular, the modelling of non-equilibrium plasmas requires a detailed knowledge of cross sections for elastic scattering, excitation, ionization and recombination for neutral and for ionized atomic species. In recent years a number of important advances have been made both in experiment and in theory. On the experimental side these advances include absolute measurements of cross sections, experiments using coincidence techniques, polarized beams and targets, incident positrons and the use of synchrotron radiation sources and lasers. Many of these measurements provide stringent tests of the theory by enabling the magnitude of individual scattering amplitudes and their relative phases to be determined. They have stimulated the development of new theoretical methods as well as sophisticated computer programs to solve the resultant equations. In this monograph we develop the theory of electron--atom and electron-ion collisions and we illustrate the various theoretical approaches by comparing their results with experimental data. We begin in Part I, which is the subject of the present volume, by treating potential scattering. This serves as an introduction to many of the basic concepts which will be required in Parts II and III of the monograph where we discuss the general theory of electron collisions with atoms and ions at low and at high energies, respectively. In Chapter 1 we present a general introduction to the non-relativistic scattering of a spinless particle by a potential. In this way we introduce the partial wave expansion and the scattering phase shifts which are central to the theory of low energy collisions, and the Lippmann--Schwinger equation which provides a basis for the description of high energy collisions. In Chapter 2 we tum to approximation methods. This enables us to introduce the Born series as well as semi-classical, variational and R-matrix methods. In Chapter 3 we review the analytic properties satisfied by the scattering amplitudes. We introduce the concepts of poles, zeros and branch cuts of the S -matrix as well as effective range expansions which play an v
6 vi PREFACE important role in our understanding of electron-atom and electron-ion collisions. We also discuss in this Chapter dispersion relations. Finally, in Chapter 4 we conclude our discussion of potential scattering by extending the theory to take into account spin and relativistic effects. After describing some basic results concerning electron spin we present a review of the Dirac equation and its non-relativistic limit. We conclude this Chapter by presenting an analysis of polarization phenomena using the density matrix formalism. This volume also contains appendices giving a number of basic mathematical results needed in electron-atom collision theory. In conclusion, we wish to take this opportunity to thank our colleagues at Belfast and at Brussels for innumerable discussions on the subject matter of this monograph. We are also deeply grateful to our wives Val Burke and Halina Joachain for their continued and enthusiastic support during the lengthy period when this monograph was conceived and written. We also wish to thank Miss C. Vidal and Mrs L. Monaghan for their patient and careful typing of the manuscript. P. G. Burke, Belfast C. J. Joachain, Brussels December 1994
7 UNITS Atomic units (a. u.) will be used throughout this monograph. They are such that h = m = e = 1, where h is Planck's constant divided by 211", m is the mass of the electron and (-e) is its charge. Thus the atomic unit of length is ao = h 2 /me 2 ~ x 10-9 cm, which is the radius of the frrst Bohr orbit of the hydrogen atom with infinite nuclear mass. Using this unit of length, scattering cross sections, which have the dimensions of an area, are then expressed in units of a ~ ~ x cm2. Total cross sections are also often expressed in units o f 1 l " ~ a ~ x cm 2. The atomic unit of time is given by h 3 /me 4 = x s, while the unit of velocity is e 2 /h = x 108 cm S-l. The atomic unit of energy is e2 / ao ~ ev, which is twice the ionization energy of the hydrogen atom in its ground state (i.e. twice the Rydberg unit of energy). The fine structure constant a = e 2 /hc ~ 1/137 is of course dimensionless. vii
