Algebraic rotating-frame approach to electron-molecule scattering: A hybrid calculation

A hybrid approach to electron scattering from polar molecules that uses a recently introduced algebraic rotating-frame approach is presented. The high partial waves are taken from the rotating-frame calculation, while the low partial waves are taken from coupled-channel calculations. The method is applied to electron scattering from a diatomic molecule with large dipole moment and compared with a recent hybrid approach that uses the albegraic-eikonal approximation.
