Reactive Collisions and Final State Analysis of N- and O-involving Reactions relevant to the Hypersonic Flight Regime

Abstract

State-of-the-art quantum chemistry calculations and molecular dynamics simulations are used to calculate the cross sections and reaction rate coefficients for several gas phase reactions important to atmospheric re-entry. This information is subsequently used in chemical reaction network simulations. The overall goal of this project is to apply computational methods to the reaction dynamics involving C-, O-, and N-atom containing species under conditions relevant to hypersonic flight regime.
