Abstract
We have studied the quantum dynamics of the O(1D)+H2(X 1Σg+)→ OH(X 2Π)+H(2S) reaction at low collision energies. The hyperspherical method has been used in a time-independent formalism. We present rotational and vibrational distributions. OH vibrational distributions are found to be noninverted. Differential cross sections are almost symmetric in the forward and backward directions, with a slight preference for forward scattering. These features are consistent with the formation of an intermediate complex.Keywords
