Abstract
Differential cross sections for rotational excitation of CO colliding with D 2 have been calculated by running 14526 classical path trajectories on an ab initio potential surface. The semiclassical method assumes a classical description of the translational and rotational motion of CO and a quantum treatment of the D 2 rotation. Except for a shift in the rotational rainbows good agreement with experimental data is obtained.
