Electron and positron impact elastic scattering Differential Cross Section (DCS), Momentum Transfer Cross Section (MTCS), Integrated Elastic Cross Section (IECS), Viscosity Cross Section (VCS) and Absorption Cross Section (ABSCS) are reported in the energy range from 10 to 20,000 eV. The elastic DCS, IECS, MTCS, VCS, and ABSCS for the ground state of the Pb atom are obtained in the Dirac Partial-Wave analysis approach using the optical-model potential for target and relativistic partial wave calculation for the projectile (electron & positron). The present results for the electron scattering are compared with the available experimental and theoretical results. Reasonable agreement with the available experimental and theoretical results is obtained.
