Moliere's multiple scattering theory revisited

Abstract

A part of Moliere's multiple scattering theory concerning the determination of the screening angular parameter is revised. An universal form of the Coulomb corrections to the screening angle, the exponential part of the distribution function, and the angular distribution is discussed within the small-angle approximation of this theory. The accuracy of the Moliere theory in determining the screening angle is estimated.
