Abstract
A new computer program has been developed which allows us to use the R-matrix method to study electron scattering by polyatomic molecules. Our first application is to scattering by in its linear, equilibrium geometry for energies up to 10 eV. We confirm the earlier assignment of symmetry to the resonance near 2 eV but we are unable to locate any resonance having symmetry in this energy range. We present integral and differential cross sections which are generally in excellent agreement with experiment.
