Electron-atom scattering picture is not complete, even for unpolarised incident electrons and argon, almost a century after the Lenard's pioneering works. Such criticism particularly has weight in the case of Ne, Kr, Xe and Rn. A great deal of effort was devoted to measure differential and integrated cross sections for both elastic and inelastic scattering of electrons by Ar and the rare gases, except Rn. Performances of apparata used in such kind of experiments are in permanent progress. Separation of inelastically scattered electrons from elastically scattered is the solved problem, even at the primary beam direction. But, the back-scattering is attained recently, by using a sophisticated technique. As jet, electron optics is of inferior resolution with respect to light optics; only lower excited states of argon and the rare gases are resolved in the electron energy-loss spectra. From the measurements we can obtain many information about processes that are not too complicated, like elastic scattering. It is easy to visualize such process and to estimate: (a) relative contribution of effects of long-range Coulomb and short-range exchange interactions to the cross sections, (b) position of critical points - where differential cross section attains its smallest values and (c) relative atomic diameter. For processes that are more complex, measurements were generally carried out only at a few impact energies. So, it is not easy to estimate the effects of: electron "absorption", statistical weight ratios of the fine structure states, scattering at small angles etc. A more thorough knowledge about a structure (rapid decrease) in the elastic integral cross sections for Ar and Xe at intermediate energies (10-100 eV) required a new approach and more precise measurements. 41 1. INTRODUCTION Nineteen seven years ago, Lenard1 published an experiment of electron - gas atom collisions with the aim to throw more light to both the constituents and the structure of matter. Results of that experiment with argon (and a few molecules) as a target, attracted a great interest, especially as a base for a model of the atom, well known at the present as the Lenard's model. A decade after, observation of a substantial energy absorption in inelastic electron-atom collisions, by Franck and Hertz2, was an elegant proof of Bohr's theory of the hydrogen atom. Both experiments pointed out lower incident electron velocities, at which the collision involves a number of complex processes, as more convenient to perform new fundamental experiments. It is thorough why Ramsauer3 designed an apparatus in which incident electrons were accelerated by the electric field and selected by the magnetic field to well defined low velocities. In this way, result of extraordinary decreasing of the effective cross section for scattering of slow incident electrons by argon, obtained previously by Mayer4, was confirmed. Ramsauer extended the measurements to He, Ne, Kr and Xe, and found the same effect in the case of Kr and Xe. Theoretical description of this effect by Faxen and Holtsmark5 was based on Rayleigh's ideas related to a sound wave as a sum of its harmonics. The elastic cross section of an atom has presented as the sum of the partial cross sections over all partial waves (i.e. angular momentum quantum numbers) of the incident wave. Bohr suggested the explanation for the falling down of the cross section: Spherical potential of Ar, as well as of Kr and Xe, may be deep enough to introduce one or more complete wavelengths of zero angular momentum, so the scattering can not been observed far from the atom.
