Stereodynamics of the He ＋ D2^＋ → HeD^＋ ＋ D Reaction on the PALMIERI Surface

Using the quasi-classical trajectory method, the product rotational polarization of the ion-molecule reaction He^＋D2^＋ has been calculated at different collision energies on the PALMIERI potential energy surface [Palmieri et al. Mol. Phys. 98 （2000） 1835]. The distribution angle between k and j′, P（Or）, the distribution of the dihedral angle P（Фr）, and the angular distribution of product rotational vectors in the form of polar plots in θr and Фr are calculated. In addition, four polarization-dependent differential cross sections are also presented in the center-of-mass frame, respectively. The results indicate that the rotational polarization of the product HeD^＋ presents different characters for different collision energies. These discrepancies may be ascribed to the different collision energies and constructions of the potential energy surface.     

Theoretical study of stereodynamics for the O（3P） ＋ H2 → OH ＋ H reaction

This paper employs the quasi-classical trajectory calculations to study the influence of collision energy on the title reaction on the potential energy surface of the ground ³A' triplet state developed by Rogers et al. (J. Phys. Chem. A 2000 104 2308). It calculates the product angular distribution of P(θ_r), P(φ_r) and P(θ_r, φ_r) which reflects vector correlation. The distribution P(θ_r) shows that product rotational angular momentum vectors j' of the products are strongly aligned along the relative velocity direction k. The distribution of P(φ_r) implies a preference for left-handed product rotation in planes parallel to the scattering plane. Four different polarisation-dependent cross-sections are also presented in the centre-of-mass frame. Results indicate that OH is sensitively affected by collision energies of H₂.     

Theoretical Study of Isotopic Effect of Oxygen Atom on the Stereodynamics for the O（^3P） ＋ D2 → OD ＋ D Reaction

Quasi-classical trajectory theory is used to study the isotope effect of oxygen atoms on the vector correlations in the O（^3P） ＋ D reaction at a collision energy of 25kcal/mol using accurate potential energy surface of the 3A＇ triplet state. The distributions of p（θr） and the distribution of dihedral angel p（φr） as well as p（θr,φr） are calculated. Moreover, four polarization-dependent generalized differential cross sections （PDDCSs） of product are presented in the center-of-mass frame. The results indicate that the polarization of the product presents different characters for the isotope effect of oxygen atoms. Isotopic substitute can cause obviously different effects on the four PDDCSs.     

Quasi-classical Trajectory Study of Reaction O （^3P）＋HCl （v =2; j=1,6,9） →OH＋Cl

The reaction O（^3P）＋HCl （v=2; j= 1,6,9） → OH＋Cl is theoretically studied with a quasi-classical trajectory method （QCT） on the benchmark potential energy surface of the ground 3A＇＇ state [J. Chem. Phys. 119（2003）9550]. The QCT-calculated state-resolved rotational distributions are in good agreement with the experimental results. The rotational polarization of the product OH molecule becomes weaker as the initial HCl rotation is excited. The calculated results can be explained from the large mass factor cos2 β of the title reaction, the van der Waals well in the potential energy surface and the secondary encounters in the exit channel.     

Stereodynamics study of the H′（^2S） ＋ NH（X^3∑-） 〉 N（4S） ＋ H2 reaction

The stereodynamics and reaction mechanism of the H′（^2S） ＋ NH （X^3∑^-） → N（^4S） ＋ H2 reaction are thoroughly studied at collision energies in the 0.1 eV-1.0 eV range using the quasiclassical trajectory （QCT） on the ground 4A″ potential energy surface （PES）. The distributions of vector correlations between products and reagents P（φr）, P（φr） and P（φr,φr） are presented and discussed. The results indicate that product rotational angular momentum j′ is not only aligned, but also oriented along the direction perpendicular to the scattering plane; further, the product H2 presents different rotational polarization behaviors for different collision energies. Furthermore, four polarization-dependent differential cross sections （PDDCSs） of the product He are also calculated at different collision energies. The reaction mechanism is analyzed based on the stereodynamics properties. It is found that the abstraction mechanism is appropriate for the title reaction.

Quasi-classical trajectory study of the isotope effect on the stereodynamics in the reaction H（2S） ＋ CH（X2∏; v=o,j= 1）→ C（1D）＋H2（X1∑g＋）

The isotope effect on the stereodynamic properties in the title reaction is investigated by a quasi-classical trajectory （QCT） method on the 11At potential energy surface at a collision energy of 23.06 kcal/mol. The angular distributions P（φr ）, P（θr）, P（θr, φr）, and the polarization-dependent generalized differential cross sections are calculated, which demonstrate the observable influences on the rotational polarization of the product by the isotopic substitution of H with D.     

Influence of rotational excitation and collision energy on the stereo dynamics of the reaction： N（4S）＋H2 （v = 0, j = 0, 2, 5, 10） →NH（X3∑-）＋H

The N+H₂ reaction has attracted a great deal of attention from both the experimental and the theoretical community, and most of the attention has been paid to the first excited state N(²D) atoms in collisions with hydrogen molecules and the scalar properties of the reaction. In this paper, we study the stereo dynamical properties and calculate the reaction cross sections of the N(⁴S) + H₂ (v=0, j=0, 2, 5, 10) → NH(X³Σ^-) + H using the quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) method on an accurate NH₂ potential energy surface (PES) reported by Poveda and Varandas [Poveda L A and Varandas A J C 2005 Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 7 2867], in a collision energy range of 25 kcal·mol^-1-140 kcal·mol^-1. Results indicate that the reactant rotational excitation and initial collision energy both have a considerable influence on the distributions of the k-j′ correlation, the k-k′-j′ correlation and k-k′ correlation. The differential cross section is found to be sensitive to collision energy.
