Text: "Electron diffraction by macroscopic objects." The theoretical results for the diffraction of electrons by a disk and a pair of rectangular slits derived from the Schroedinger equation using results from time-dependent perturbation theory in both the strong and weak scattering limits. Finds that the interference pattern produced by the electrons would be the same as that produced by electromagnetic radiation with the same wavelength as the De Broglie wavelength of the electron. American Journal of Physics. 52(1), Jan. 1984. p. 49-54.
