New Cross Sections For H On H2 Collisional Transitions, Qianxia Zou Aug 2011

New Cross Sections For H On H2 Collisional Transitions, Qianxia Zou

UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones

The cross section for H on H2 collisions is important for astrophysics as well as our understanding of the simple chemical systems. This is the simplest atom-molecule cross section. With a new H3 potential surface by Mielke et al., we have modified the ABC code by Skouteris, Castillo and Manolopoulos to calculate new cross sections. These cross sections are compared to previous cross section calculations.
