Abstract In this Topical Review we survey the current state of the art in the study of low
energy electron collisions with biologically relevant molecules and molecular clusters. We …

We review a selection of recent experimental and theoretical cross section results for
electron scattering from a range of biofuels (methanol, ethanol), biomolecules (water …

Seminal gas discharge experiments of the late 19th and early 20th centuries laid the
foundations of modern physics, and the influence of this “golden era” continues to resonate …

Starting from first principles, this tutorial describes the development of the adiabatic-nuclei
convergent close-coupling (CCC) method and its application to electron and (single-centre) …

This work provides the first cross section data set of DNA constituents for an impact of
electrons in the energy range between about 10 eV and 1 keV on a DNA target. The data set …

We present a set of self-consistent cross sections for electron transport in gaseous
tetrahydrofuran (THF), that refines the set published in our previous study [1] by proposing …

Water is often used as the medium for characterizing the effects of radiation on living tissue.
However, in this study, charged-particle track simulations are employed to quantify the …

Accurate modelling of electron transport in plasmas, plasma-liquid and plasma-tissue
interactions requires (i) the existence of accurate and complete sets of cross-sections, and …

Electronic excitations and ionisations produced by electron impact are key processes in the
radiation-induced damage mechanisms in materials of biological relevance, underlying …

We report theoretical and experimental total cross sections for electron scattering by phenol
(C 6 H 5 OH). The experimental data were obtained with an apparatus based in Madrid and …
