Classical limits of the quantal centrifugal-sudden approximation to generalized cross-sections have been derived and compared with the exact classical results. Detailed comparisons between the classical centrifugal-sudden approximation (cCSA) values, the exact classical trajectory results, and the corresponding quantal calculations are then carried out for the Ar-N2 system, and contrasted with Similar comparisons for He-N 2. Above 150 K the cCSA is found to be accurate to within 1% for the temperature dependent viscosity and diffusion cross-sections and 5% for the viscomagnetic and depolarized Rayleigb lightscattering cross-sections.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
