Cold ion chemistry within a Rydberg-electron orbit: test of the spectator role of the Rydberg electron in the He(n) + CO → C(n′) + O + He reaction

Recently, a new method has been introduced to study ion-molecule reactions at very low collision energies, down to below k _B ⋅ 1 K (Allmendinger et al 2016 ChemPhysChem 17 3596). To eliminate the acceleration of the ions by stray electric fields in the reaction volume, the reactions are observed wi...
