✦ Synopsis

The role of dispersion correction has been qualitatively studied in isotopic comparison experiments. The correction to elastic electron scattering for electrons of order 100 MeV from three isotopes of Titanium has been estimated using a code due to Rawitscher. The dispersion correction is found to produce variations in the ratio of the cross sections of nearby isotopes of a magnitude sufficient to cast doubt on the magnitude of the variations in charge density parameters.
