Abstract

Triple differential cross sections (TDCSs) are calculated for the ionization of the hydrogen molecule by electron impact with asymmetric and symmetric kinematical configuration, respectively in coplanar arrangement and in the plane perpendicular to the incident direction. In the scattering plane we explore the angular distribution of the TDCS as well as the dependence of the cross section on the internuclear separation. In the perpendicular plane the TDCSs are investigated as a function of the angular separation between the outgoing electrons and for an equal energy sharing between them.
