Theoretical Study of State-to-State Collisions.
Abstract
The probability of making transitions between specifically known molecular states by collision processes has been theoretically investigated. The following research areas have been studied: Collisions of Rydberg states of Na, Rb, and Xe with rare gas atoms and with molecules; calculations of potential curves, matrix elements, and photodissociation cross sections of CH+; and nonadiabatic collision processes between alkali atoms or rare gas metastables and diatomic molecules that lead to ion-pair formation.
