Abstract
Scattering of helium atoms by cyclopentane, pyrrolidine and tetrahydrofurane molecules was observed in crossed molecular beam experiments. The intensity of scattered helium atoms, depending on the scattering angle, was measured with high resolution, and the damping of the diffraction oscillations of the differential cross sections was used to extract elastic anisotropic interaction potentials for these molecules. The evaluation included a geometric transformation concerning the puckered states of the envelope and the twisted conformation of the molecules. The potentials were found to be rather similar.
