摘要
The R-matrix method has been widely employed to ab initio calculations on a large variety of problems related to electron molecule scattering. The UK Molecular R-matrix Code, which are a synthesis between codes designed for quantum chemistry and electron atom scattering calculations, has proved particularly popular for these studies but is difficult for the non-specialist to use. The Quantemol-N software environment is designed for scientists with a minimal knowledge of scattering theory or quantum chemistry to use without the need of a complex and dedicated training. Their use is illustrated for low energy electron collisions with silane.
