Optical potential method for electron scattering by molecule

The relativistic optical potential method has been proposed for the study potential electron scattering by molecules in framework of independent atom model. For the consistent description of electron scattering process on the atoms of molecules, the interaction potentials and atomic characteristics are determined in the local approximation of the stationary, excluding the self-action energy correction, and non-stationary density functional theories with the account of relativistic effects
