70. For low-energy electrons, the rigorous description of this effect is complicated by the fact that the electron wavefunction in the far region is dominated by the s wave. In particular, the behavior of the width in the low-energy region is determined by the s wave Wigner exponent modified by the dipolar interaction [for example see I. I. Fabrikant, Sov. Phys. JETP 46, 693 (1977); W. Domcke and L. S. Cederbaum, J. Phys. B 14, 149 (1981)]. Only when the electron approaches the molecule and is captured into the resonance state, is the wavefunction dominated by the p wave.
