TLDR
In this article, the authors used the extended polarizationpotential method to calculate the differential cross sections for elastic electron-helium scattering, which was presented in tabular form for collision energies between 1 and 95 eV and a selection of scattering angles from 0 to 180 deg.
Abstract
The extended-polarization-potential method has been used to calculate the differential cross sections for elastic electron-helium scattering. The results are presented in tabular form for collision energies between 1 and 95 eV and a selection of scattering angles from 0 to 180 deg. Total scattering cross sections are also given for all energies considered.

Measurements of Secondary‐Electron Spectra Produced by Electron Impact Ionization of a Number of Simple Gases

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the energy distribution and angular dependence of secondary electrons generated by the impact of 100−2000eV electrons on He, N2, and O2 and measured the shape of the spectra of all the gases, except Ar, Kr, and Xe.

Electron scattering by molecules II. Experimental methods and data

TL;DR: A survey of the available experimental cross section data is presented in this article, where the emphasis is on elastic scattering, rotational, vibrational and electronic excitations, total electron scattering, and momentum transfer in the few eV to few hundred eV impact energy range.

A Monte Carlo analysis of an electron swarm in a nonuniform field: the cathode region of a glow discharge in helium

TL;DR: In this article, a Monte Carlo method for studying the steady-state behavior of charged species under the influence of a non-uniform electric field is described, using a null-collision technique based on determination of the increase in kinetic energy between two collisions, avoiding calculation of the time variations of the phase space coordinates of the charged species.

Absolute elastic differential electron scattering cross sections in the intermediate energy region. II.—N2

TL;DR: In this paper, a new method for measuring absolute electron−impact differential cross sections (DCS) for elastic scattering in gases is described, which uses a well-defined crossed-beam scattering geometry in which the relative target densities of an unknown and a secondary standard gas are accurately determined by a calibrated flowmeter and a pressure gauge.

The elastic scattering of electrons from inert gases. III. Argon

TL;DR: In this article, the R-matrix calculations of O'Malley et al. are simplified and extended to the intermediate impact energy range in which the He ground-state wavefunction is coupled with a 'P pseudo-state to include the full static dipole polarisability.
