Loupas, Alexandra Regeta, Khrystyna Allan, Michael Gorfinkiel, Jimena D. 2017-12-27 We present a comprehensive study of resonance formation in electron collisions with thiophene. Detailed calculations have been performed using the ab initio R-matrix method. Absolute differential cross sections for electron impact excitation up to 18 eV and for two scattering angles, 90 and 135°, have been measured. Agreement between the calculated and measured experimental cross sections is very good. Three shape resonances previously described, two of π* character and one σ*, as well as a number of resonances of core-excited or mixed character are identified and characterized in the calculations. The measured cross sections provide experimental confirmation for a number of the core-excited resonances. The link between these resonances and prior DEA experiments is discussed. application/pdf https://folia.unifr.ch/global/documents/306678 https://folia.unifr.ch/documents/306678/files/all_sce.pdf https://folia.unifr.ch/documents/306678/files/all_sce_sm.pdf eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.1021/acs.jpca.7b11865 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess License undefined The Journal of Physical Chemistry A. - 2018, vol. 122, no. 4, p. 1146–1155 info:eu-repo/classification/udc/54 Shape and core-excited resonances in thiophene http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
