Abstract
To reveal the influence of nonadiabatic couplings on the H(2S) + NaH(X1Σ+) reaction, a comparative study on adiabatic and nonadiabatic dynamics is conducted by using the time-dependent wave packet method. The dynamics results show that nonadiabatic couplings reduce the reactivity of H2(X1Σg+) forming channel and vibrational state density of the product, while the exchange reaction channel is almost unaffected. Although the nonadiabatic couplings have a great influence on the product state distribution, it has little influence on the scattering direction of the product. For the H2(X1Σg+) forming channels, products tend to forward scattering. For the exchange reaction channel, the NaH(X1Σ+) product exhibits a maximum scattering peak in the backward direction. The study reveals that the effect of nonadiabatic couplings on the ro-vibration distribution of the H2(X1Σg+) forming channel in the H(2S) + NaH(X1Σ+) reaction is significantly different from the effect in the H(2S) + LiH(X1Σ+) reaction.
