Integral and differential elastic cross sections for electron scattering from water for 0.1-15 eV

Elastic integral and differential cross sections (DCS) for electron scattering from H2O calculated with the R-matrix method within the fixed-nuclei approximation. Details of the calculations can be found in Evaluation of Recommended Cross Sections for the simulation of Electron Tracks in Water, García-Abenza et al., Atoms, submitted. The models used for the calculations were taken from Gorfinkiel et al. J. Phys. B 35 (2002) 543, doi:10.1088/0953-4075/35/3/309 and Faure et al. J. Phys. 37 (2004) 801, doi:10.1088/0953-4075/37/4/007.

All energies are in eV, angles in degrees and cross sections in Angstrom**2. The dcs_*** files contain DCS for the energy indicated by the file name for angles between 0 and 180; the integral_cross_section file contains the integral cross section for the energy range indicated by the zip file.
