H. Ray et al., THE EFFECT OF CORE ELECTRONS IN E(-NA SCATTERING()), Journal of physics. B, Atomic molecular and optical physics, 31(8), 1998, pp. 1631-1636
The scattering of positrons off sodium targets has been investigated u
sing the coupled static model. The sodium atom is represented by the o
ne-active-electron model in which all the electrons of the target have
been considered explicitly and the loosely bound valence electron is
only involved in transitions. The scattering parameters are presented
at low and medium energies. Appreciable differences are noticed betwee
n the present results and those obtained by the one-electron model wit
h and without the core potential.
