Our main focus is on electron, positron and photon scattering from atomic and molecular targets. These scattering studies are performed theoretically over an extensive energy range (~0 to 10 keV), which is of enormous importance to the atomic and molecular physics community. The local chemistry of any environment where such processes takes place primarily depended on these reactions. Hence, the prediction of cross sections and reaction rates are of utmost importance. They are important to technological plasma, astrophysics, semiconductor industry, atmospheric physics and biological sciences. We use optical potential and R-matrix methods in our calculation.
