A comprehensive set of cross sections for electron scattering from the ground and first four excited states of tin has been calculated using the Relativistic Convergent Close-Coupling method. Elastic scattering, momentum transfer, total scattering, and total-inelastic scattering cross sections have been produced for the $5p^2$ ${}^3{P}_{0,1,2}$, ${}^1{D}_2$ and ${}^1{S}_0$ states of atomic tin over a projectile energy range of 0.1 eV to 1000 eV. Over the same projectile energy range, state-resolved cross sections for excitations to the $5p^2$, $5p6s$, $5p5d$ and $5p6p$ manifolds from the ground and first four excited states of tin are presented. Total single-ionisation cross sections have been calculated which account for the direct ionisation of electrons in the valence $5p$ and closed $5s$ shells, as well as indirect contributions from excitation auto-ionisation. These ionisation cross sections are presented for projectile energies up to 1000 eV. Maxwellian rate coefficients have been calculated for all studied transitions over electron temperatures ranging from 0.5 eV to 200 eV and fitted with simple formulas. The fit coefficients are tabulated for use in modelling applications.

使用相对论收敛紧耦合方法计算了锡的地面电子散射和锡的前四个激发态的一组综合横截面。已生成弹性散射、动量传递、总散射和总非弹性散射截面$5p^2$ ${}^3{磷}_{0,1,2}$,${}^1{D}_2$和${}^1{S}_0$0.1 eV 至 1000 eV 射弹能量范围内原子锡的状态。在相同的射弹能量范围内，激发的状态分辨截面$5p^2$,$5p6s$,$5p5d$和$5p6p$给出了来自地面的流形和锡的前四种激发态。计算了总单电离截面，该截面解释了价态电子的直接电离$5p$并关闭$5s$壳，以及激发自电离的间接贡献。这些电离截面是针对高达 1000 eV 的射弹能量呈现的。麦克斯韦速率系数已针对所有研究的电子温度范围从 0.5 eV 到 200 eV 的跃迁进行计算，并使用简单的公式进行拟合。拟合系数被制成表格以用于建模应用。
