Question:

Consider a general inverse-power interparticle force of the form

where K is a constant and p is a positive integer number.

(a) Determine expressions for the scattering angle χ, for the differential scattering cross section σ(χ, ∈), for the total scattering cross section at, and for the momentum transfer cross section σm.

(b) Calculate χ, σ(χ, ∈), σt, and σm for the case of Maxwell molecules, for which p = 5.
