Аннотация:Cross section data have been compiled for electron collisions with nitrogen molecules, based on 104 references. Cross sections are collected and reviewed for: total scattering, elastic scattering, momentum transfer, excitations of rotational, vibrational, and electronic states, dissociation, ionization, and emission of radiation. For each process, the recommended values of the cross section are presented for use. The literature has been surveyed through the end of 2003.
