Abstract
The angular distribution data of Rohr and Linder (1976) for the vibrational excitation of HF at 2 eV are compared with the theoretical expression assuming a 2 Sigma + resonance. Additional theoretical expressions for rotational-vibrational transitions are given. They are found to play a critical role in determining the actually measured angular distributions for the vibrational excitation process. It is concluded that the data are not inconsistent with a short-lived 2 Sigma + resonance in HF-.Keywords
