Photodissociation of water. II. Wave packet calculations for the photofragmentation of H2O and D2O in the B̃ band

Abstract: A complete three-dimensional quantum mechanical description of the photodissociation of water in the B̃ band, starting from its rotational ground state, is presented. In order to include B̃-X̃ vibronic coupling and the B̃-Ã Renner–Teller coupling, diabatic electronic states have been constructed from adiabatic electronic states and matrix elements of the electronic angular momentum operators, following the procedure developed by A. J. Dobbyn and P. J. Knowles [Mol. Phys. 91, 1107 (1997)], using the ab initio r… Show more

“…As discussed before, these undulating peaks in the absorption spectrum stem from wavepacket recurrence in the Franck-Condon region. 21,22,31 In Fig. 2, we compare our calculated DCSs with those measured in a recent experiment.…”

“…78 With these accurate PESs available, rigorous quantum mechanical dynamics calculations have been performed, taking simultaneously into account all three states and the couplings between them and all nuclear degrees of freedom. 80 These calculations, for the first time, allowed detailed comparisons with the many experimental data and provided valuable insight into the complex dissociation dynamics. In the following we discuss some of the highlights of the comparisons between experiment and theory.…”

“…80 For low energies above the OH(A) threshold, the branching ratio is small for OH(A) and almost unity for OH(X). However, as the excess energy increases, the first one increases and the latter decreases.…”

“…The latter problem has played a principal role in unimolecular dissociation studies, and it has received significant experimental and theoretical attention (e.g., Carrington 1964;Yamashita 1975;Andresen et al 1984;Häusler et al 1987;Engel et al 1988;Harich et al 2000;Nizkorodov et al 2003;Mordaunt et al 1994;Dixon 1995;Dixon et al 1999;van Harrevelt & van Hemert 2000). Our purpose is to augment the existing laboratory database for OH Ã rotational distributions with a set of measurements of emission from this photodissociation product of cometary H 2 O.…”
