Abstract
Theoretical cross sections for the rotational excitation of homonuclear molecules by slow electrons are applied to calculation of the fractional energy loss per collision () in . The theoretical losses are not more than and except at the lowest energies studied (∼0.1 ev) are smaller than observed.
