Abstract
A modified version of the IERM approach is applied to electron scatter ing from hydrogen atoms at intermediate energies to evaluate integrate d cross sections for the n = 2 to n = 3 transitions. Results are compa red with earlier work which overestimates these cross sections due to the omission of continuum channels. These results have important appli cations in astrophysics.
