Is an electron beam affected by photons?

[QUOTE="Herbascious J, post: 6426315, member: 132281"] [B]TL;DR Summary:[/B] Are beams made of electrons, like the kind used in the double slit experiments, able to withstand the presence of light or air molecules, without interacting? I am wondering if one of the prerequisites of the double-slit experiment, when done with electrons, is that the beams must be in a dark vacuum tube so as to not destroy the interference pattern. I am trying to learn if the beams will lose their interference pattern because the particles of the beam are interacting with other particles like photons or gases before hitting the screen. [/QUOTE]
