Abstract:
For the first time in the literature, rigorous time-independent quantum scattering formalism was applied, by means of the ABC program, to the H + Li(2) → LiH + Li reaction. The state-to-state probabilities as a function of the total energy have been computed at zero total angular momentum (J = 0) allowing us to evaluate the effect of vibrational/rotational excitation on the reaction promotion/inhibition, the energetic distribution of products, and the temperature dependence of the J-shifting thermal rate coefficients.
