Abstract
We study the energy dependence of the scattering operator for a two-body model of electron scattering from a neutral molecule. We show that the methods of the first paper can be applied even though the dipole moment of the molecule is non-zero, and prove continuity of the scattering operatorS(E) asE varies, in a very strong sense.
