Elastic electron scattering from formic acid (HCOOH): absolute differential cross-sections

Abstract

We report experimental results for electron scattering from formic acid (HCOOH). A set of differential cross-sections is provided for elastic scattering at incident electron energies from 1.8 to 50 eV. Integral and momentum transfer cross-sections have also been derived from these results. Our results are compared, where possible, with recent theoretical calculations.
