The capture dynamics of Ne by a HeND was studied theoretically in a detailed manner (energy and angular momentum transfer and vortex formation).

Rotational relaxation in a 4He superfluid nanodroplet is studied adapting a quantum approach recently proposed by us. In the first theoretical study on this problem several isotopes of H2 are examined (cascade mechanism, time scale of ns, etc.).

The Ne + Ne@(4He)N reaction dynamics was studied using a quantum–classical approach. The angular momentum plays a critical role: the Ne–Ne adduct formation dominates the reactivity (instead of the Ne2 dimer) and quantized vortices are produced.

The influence of the nanodroplet size, interaction potential energy and vibrational energy gap on the vibrational energy relaxation of a diatomic molecule in a superfluid helium nanodroplet has been studied theoretically for the first time.
