Abstract
We present elastic integral, differential, and momentum-transfer cross sections for electron collisions with N2O. We show that, with a slight modification of a method of incorporating polarization effects proposed recently by us [Winstead, McKoy, and Bettega, Phys. Rev. A 72, 042721 (2005)] along with a flexible one-particle basis set, we can reproduce features in the experimental data that were not reproduced by earlier calculations. We also find evidence of a Ramsauer-Townsend minimum, which our calculation places at about 0.2 eV.
