Abstract
The Møller potential has been used to describe the electron-nucleon interaction and a formula has been worked out in the Born approximation for the differential cross sections of elastic and inelastic scattering of high-energy electrons by 2p-shell nuclei on the intermediate-coupling model with neglect of configuration mixing. Preliminary calculations have been made for Be9 and C12 to test some of the qualitative features of the formula deduced, especially the θ dependence of the σ(θ) vs θ curve for inelastic scattering with change of total angular momentum J.
