Abstract

Angular dependences of the elastic scattering and the vibrational excitation of N2 have been measured for impact energies between 0.1 and 1.5 eV in the angular range from 15 to 135 degrees . Absolute differential and integrated cross sections are presented. The elastic scattering can be described reasonably well by the modified effective range theory for 0.1 eV. The integral vibrational excitation cross sections are in good agreement with swarm results.
