Abstract
The cross section for the process p+H2=H+H2+ is calculated from low to moderate energies using the impact‐parameter formulation with a two‐state approximation. The experimentally measured cross section in this energy range shows a rise and fall with increasing energy of the incident proton; our theoretical calculation reproduces the same behavior with the maximum position slightly shifted towards the lower energy.Keywords
