Abstract

Simple group theoretical principles are applied to the consideration of electron scattering off atoms and diatomic and polyatomic molecules. For all scattering angles S_g ↔ S_u is forbidden for atoms. Fer axial scattering (0° or 180° scattering angle), Σ⁺ {not left-right arrow} Σ^- for linear polyatomic molecules and S_g {not left-right arrow} P_g {not left-right arrow} D_g, etc., for atoms. This approach is also used to estimate relative strengths of electron-impact-induced transitions of diatomic and polyatomic molecules.
