Zusammenfassung

Elastic scattering of polarized electrons from unpolarized Hg, Π and Pb atoms has been studied at energies ranging from 0.3 to 2.0 eV and scattering angles ranging from 30° to 125°. The experimental data of the Sherman function S are compared with two calculations in which the target configuration is accounted for in very different ways. A satisfactory description of these complex scattering systems is given by the theory of Fritsche et al. © 1992 IOP Publishing Ltd.
