摘要
Calculations of Mott elastic scattering cross section of electrons for most elements of the periodic table up to element number 94 in the energy range 20 eV-20 keV have been performed. The Dirac equation transformed to a first-order differential equation was solved numerically. The influence of the choice of atomic potential on the scattering factor was studied in comparison to a simple muffin-tin approximation of the atomic potential in solids. The application of calculated cross sections to a conventional Monte Carlo model for electron scattering using modified Bethe equation is described and results concerning the electron backscattering for different atomic potentials are compared.
