Electron impact excitation of methaneA crossed molecular beam-electron beam apparatus was employed to examine the excitation cross-sections of CH4. Attention was given to 20, 30, and 200 eV impact energies at angles from 8-130 deg. Spectra were obtained in the elastic and inelastic realms as well as in the ionization continuum in the 12.99-15.0 eV energy-loss range. Differential cross-sections were also determined. The results are useful for modeling the behavior of CH4 in planetary atmospheres.
