Abstract

Elastic electron scattering off the lithium dimer in the 2Ag symmetry is studied. R-matrix calculations in the
fixed-nuclei approximation are presented for a set of internuclear separations as well as energies of the stable
negative ion. The aim of this work is to study effects of the polarization taken into account in the outer region
on the elastic scattering cross sections. This work is the first part of a larger project dealing with Li2 leading to
calculations of nonelastic processes like vibrational excitation and dissociative electron attachment.
