Abstract
The energy‐loss cross section for 500−eV electrons incident on N2 in the range 30–110−eV energy loss has been studied in the angular range 10°‐30°. This region of the ionized continuum of N2 was studied with an energy resolution (Δε/ε) of 1.5% and an angular resolution of about 1.5°. The contribution of the differential cross section to the total energy‐loss cross section was found to be significant.
