Absolute elastic cross-sections for low-energy electron scattering from tetrahydrofuran

We present results for elastic electron collision cross-sections with tetrahydrofuran (C 4 H 8 O) in the energy range of 6.5–50 eV. The absolute cross-sections are determined from crossed beam measurements using the relative flow technique and cover the angular range between 10° and 130°. Integral and momentum transfer cross-sections have also been derived from these results. The data, where possible, are compared to recent experimental results and theoretical calculations.
