(2005) Spin asymmetries in elastic and inelastic scattering from rubidium. Journal of Physics B: Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, 38 (18). pp. 3359-3366. ISSN 0953-4075
Abstract
Experimental and theoretical results are presented for the A2 spin asymmetry for elastic and inelastic scattering of spin-polarized electrons from rubidium, at incident electron energies of 15, 20, 30, 50 and 80 eV. Theoretical calculations are performed within a semi-relativistic Breit-Pauli R-matrix (close-coupling) model. The experimental data reveal significant asymmetries at all energies. The experimental results are reasonably well described by the present theoretical calculations and by other calculations using a relativistic distorted-wave approach, and provide a clear relativistic signature.
