Abstract
This paper attempts to elucidate the relationship between bottom-up inductive and top-down deductive approaches to the calculation of electron-impact ionization cross sections for atoms. Specifically, the ionization cross sections for atomic hydrogen and helium derived from the various approaches are compared in detail.
