Born Cross Sections for Inelastic Scattering of Electrons by Hydrogen Atoms. IV. Approximate Values for Allowed Transitions up to n=10

The Born total cross section is calculated for the inelastic scattering of electrons by hydrogen atoms undergoing the transitions: 10s→11p and 10,9 {→} 11,10. By means of interpolation and extrapolation the cutoff momentum Kca₀ is estimated for all transitions of the type Δn=+1, +2, Δl=+1, for $n=1$ through 10. These are used to construct tables which provide a simple estimate of the Bethe total cross section.
