10 pags., 3 figs., 4 tabs. ; We present angle-integrated and angle-differential cross sections for electron-impact excitation of the (5s25p)P1/22→(5s26s)S1/22 transition in atomic indium. Experimental data for six incident electron energies between 10 and 100 eV are compared with predictions from semirelativistic and fully relativistic B-spline R-matrix calculations, as well as a fully relativistic convergent close-coupling model. Agreement between our measured and calculated data is, with a few exceptions, found to be typically very good. Additionally, the agreement between the present theoretical predictions is generally excellent, with the remaining small deviations being associated with the slightly different, although still very accurate, descriptions of the target structure. Agreement between the present results and an earlier relativistic distorted-wave computation [T. Das, R. Srivastava, and A. D. Stauffer, Phys. Lett. A 375, 568 (2011)PYLAAG0375-960110.1016/j.physleta.2010.12.037] was, however, found to be marginal, particularly at 10 and 20 eV. ; The work of K.R.H., O.Z., and K.B. was supported by the U.S. National Science Foundation under Grants No. OAC1834740 and No. PHY-1803844, and by the XSEDE supercomputer allocation Grant No. PHY-090031.

20 pags., 7 figs., 6 tabs. ; We report, over an extended energy range, recommended angle-integrated cross sections for elastic scattering, discrete inelastic scattering processes, and the total ionization cross section for electron scattering from atomic indium. In addition, from those angle-integrated cross sections, a grand total cross section is subsequently derived. To construct those recommended cross-section databases, results from original B-spline R-matrix, relativistic convergent close-coupling, and relativistic optical-potential computations are also presented here. Electron transport coefficients are subsequently calculated, using our recommended database, for reduced electric fields ranging from 0.01 Td to 10 000 Td using a multiterm solution of Boltzmann's equation. To facilitate those simulations, a recommended elastic momentum transfer cross-section set is also constructed and presented here. ; The work of K.R.H., O.Z., and K.B. was supported by the United States National Science Foundation under Grant Nos.
