The present work focuses on electron impact scattering in crystalline ice, which is an exotic solid. The major difference between crystalline form and amorphous form lies in its structure. Here we consider the H 2 O molecule to possess properties consistent with the ice structure. Our basic calculation rests on the complex optical potential for the e-molecule system, with the molecular charge...
