Dissociative recombination of D3O+ and H3O+: Absolute cross sections and branching ratios

Abstract: Dissociative recombination of the polyatomic ions D3O+ and H3O+ with electrons have been studied at the heavy-ion storage ring CRYRING (Manne Siegbahn Laboratory, Stockholm University). Absolute cross sections have been determined from 0.001 eV to 0.25 eV center-of-mass energy for D3O+ and from 0.001 eV to 28 eV for H3O+. The cross sections are large (7.3×10−13 cm2 for D3O+ and 3.3×10−12 cm2 for H3O+ at 0.001 eV). At low energies, the cross sections for D3O+ are E−1 energy dependent whereas it is slightly stee… Show more

“…29 Another ring experiment, at CRYRING on the H 3 O + ion yielded a branching ratio of 0.67. 23 This channel corresponds to reaction (3b) in the present reaction system, which shows a similar branching ratio of 0.51. The pathway forming H 2 O in the DR of H 3 O + is definitely stronger (0.33 29 and 0.18 23 , respectively, in different storage ring experiments) than the related channel (3e) that forms methanol in the DR of CH 3 OH 2 + , but it is worth noting that flowing afterglow measurements report a much lower value (0.05), [30][31][32] which is similar to our findings with methanol.…”

“…The heavy-ion storage ring CRYRING in Stockholm, Sweden is an appropriate tool for investigations of astrophysically relevant DR reactions and has proven successful in doing so for several years, see e.g. Larsson et al (1993Larsson et al ( , 1995; Al-Khalili et al (1998); Neau et al (2000); McCall et al (2003); Hamberg et al (2005); Geppert et al (2005); Thomas (2008).…”

“…The pulse height of the detector signal was therefore proportional to the total mass. To measure the branching fractions a metal grid with a transmission T = 0.297 ± 0.015 was inserted in front of the detector (Neau et al 2000). In this case the registered DR spectrum splits into a series of peaks with different energies corresponding to the sum of the masses of the particles passing the grid.…”

“…The experimental procedure has been described in detail elsewhere (Neau et al 2000) and is therefore summarized only briefly here. For technical reasons related to the data analysis (better resolution on the detector) fully deuterated compounds were used in the case of protonated acetonitrile and protonated methylacetylene.…”
