Abstract

The EB (exponential Born) and IOS (infinite order sudden) methods are used to calculate a variety of j → j′ and jm → j′ m′ integral cross sections and j → j′ differential cross sections for CsF—Ar at E cm = 87.7 meV. Inelastic rotational cross sections are found to depend primarily on the odd long range parts of the interaction potential. The jm → j′ m′ integral cross sections for the quantization axis parallel to the initial relative velocity vector are found to approximately obey the selection rule “Δ j + Δ m = even” and cross sections for which the orientation of the rotor is left unchanged (i.e. 11 → 11, 11 → 22, and 11 → 33 transitions) are strongly favored over those which are changed for low lying rotational states. Good agreement between the IOS and EB methods is found for most of the scattering quantities calculated.
