Dissociative recombination of electrons and molecular ions

Low-temperature dissociative recombination of electrons with and molecular ions

“…In the first stage the adiabatic representation (where the intermediate Rydberg complex is described without accounting for nonadiabatic rotational coupling) is considered. In the second stage, by analogy with Golubkov et al (1995a) the integral equations for the collision T -matrix are renormalized in order to express its elements obviously through the adiabatic T ad -matrix. In this case the system of operator equations ( 3) and ( 4) is reduced to the equivalent form…”

“…Theoretical investigations of reaction (1) have been performed in many works (Bardsley 1968b, Bottcher 1974, Fiquet-Fayard 1975, Lee 1977, Zhdanov and Chibisov 1978, Derkits et al 1979, Zhdanov 1980, Giusti 1980, O'Malley 1981, Giusti-Suzor et al 1983, Takagi and Nakamura 1986, Hickman 1987, Nakashima et al 1987, Guberman and Giusti-Suzor 1991, Schneider et al 1991, 1992, 1994, Takagi 1993a, Golubkov and Ivanov 1993, Tanabe et al 1995, Golubkov et al 1995a. It was shown that the process took place either via direct transition to the dissociative continuum or through the stage of creation of an intermediate Rydberg complex XY * * decaying into the dissociative state.…”
