FINITE-ELEMENT Z-MATRIX CALCULATION OF ELECTRON-N2 COLLISIONS Winifred M. Huo* and Christopher E. Dateo+ *NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, CA 94035-1000 U.S.A. +Thermosciences Institute, NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, CA 94035-1000 U.S.A. The finite element Z-matrix method has been applied in a multichannel study of e-N2 collisions for electron energies from threshold to 30 eV. General agreement is obtained comparing with existing experimental and theoretical data. Some discrepancies are also found.
