QUANTUM STUDY OF VIBRATIONAL-EXCITATION IN THE 3-DIMENSIONAL COLLISIONS OF CO2 WITH RARE-GAS ATOMS

A combined vibrational close-coupling and rotational infinite order sudden technique is described for calculating vibrational excitation cross sections σνν′, for the three-dimensional collisions of atoms with linear triatomic molecules. The method treats anharmonic, Coriolis, and vibrational angular...
