Abstract

We discuss, on a phenomenological level, the possible appearance of resonances ine ++e scattering at energies in the MeV region. The expected resonance cross section and angular distribution are examined. The observability depends crucially on the attainable energy resolution which is limit by the momentum distribution of the electrons contained in the target.
