Abstract

We present calculations of the differential, integrated elastic, and total cross sections for positrons scattered from alkali-metal atoms. The energy of the positrons ranges from 10 eV to 1000 eV. In the calculations we use parameter-free model potentials for the correlation-polarization and absorption interactions. The absorption potential used for positron scattering is based on a quasifree model that we recently proposed and tested for the noble-gas targets. For positron-alkali-metal scattering the model potentials have produced reliable scattering cross sections over the extended range of impact energies when compared against the available experimental data.
