Electron scattering cross sections for 1-pentene, H2C=CH-(CH2)2CH3, molecules

Abstract

Cross sections, both experimental and theoretical, are reported for electron scattering from 1-pentene (C5H10) molecules. Absolute grand-total cross sections (TCSs) were measured at electron impact energies ranging from 1 to 300 eV, using a linear electron-transmission technique. The dominant behaviour of the experimental TCS energy function is a distinct asymmetric enhancement with the maximum located around 6.5 eV. Discernible are also three weak TCS structures: a small peak in the vicinity of 1.8 eV and two broad shoulders located between 10 and 30 eV. The additivity rule was employed to calculate the elastic cross section (ECS) from 20 to 3000 eV, while the binary-encounter-Bethe approach was used for the computation of the ionization cross section (ICS), from the threshold up to 3000 eV. Within 30 and 300 eV, the sum of computed cross sections (ECS+ICS) quite reasonably reproduces the experimental TCS values. Comparison is also made between the experimental TCS energy curve for 1-pentene (H2C=CH–(CH2)2CH3) and those measured for the ethylene (H2C=CH2) molecule and its substituted derivatives: propene (H2C=CH–CH3) and 1-butene (H2C=CH–CH2CH3).
