Semiclassical calculation of collisional dissociation cross sections for N¿N2
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dissociation and doubly differential cross sections are calculated for N1N2 at near-threshold collision energies using a semiclassical wave packet method in which the vibrational motion of the molecule is treated quantum mechanically and the rotational and translational motions are treated classically. A three-bodied London–Eyring–Polanyi–Sato potential energy surface is used and results compared to those obtained using a purely repulsive power law potential. For a comparison of results, cross sections are also calculated using pure classical mechanics. © 2002 American Institute of Physics. @DOI: 10.1063/1.1504085#

Collisional dissociation cross sections for O + O 2 , CO andN 2 , O 2 + O 2 , N + N 2 , andN 2 + N 2
Using laboratory data for the scattering of O by O2, CO and N2 pair potentials are constructed for O, C and N atoms. These potentials are then used to calculate collisional dissociation and energy transfer cross sections for O on O2, CO and N2; O2 on O2, N on N2, and N2 on N2. Since the energetic ions often neutralize in the atmosphere corona, such cross sections are relevant to plasma ion bomb...

An ab initio calculation of the electron capture cross sections for collisions of ground and metastable states of N2+ with Hs1sd is presented. Total cross sections are evaluated for N impact energies from 2 310−3 to 300 keV, using both quantal and semiclassical treatments. The results are compared with experimental and previous theoretical data, and are used to check the presence of metastable ...

Resonant vibrational excitation cross sections and the corresponding rate coefficients for electron–N2 collisions occurring through the N − 2 (X 2 g) resonant state are reviewed. New calculations are performed using accurate potential energy curves for the N2 electronic ground state, taken from the literature, and for the N2 resonant state, obtained from R-matrix calculations. The calculations ...
