Abstract

An optical potential method is used to formulate a model for the post-collision interaction that occurs in electron-helium scattering after excitation and decay of autoionising states. The model is an extension of an earlier description given by Nienhuis and Heideman, and is used to study the effects of post-collision interaction in ejected-electron spectra. The authors present a calculation of angular distributions of ejected electrons from the He**(2s2)1S autoionising state. It is argued that study of angular momentum exchange during the post-collision interaction requires detailed knowledge of the interfering background of the direct ionisation process.
