Abstract

In the collision of Br + with Kr there is considerable transfer of translational to electronic energy and vice versa. This energy transfer is modelled as a Landau-Zener process at the points where the potential energy curves of the various electronic states of the halogen positive ion complex (KrBr +) cross. Experimental transitions among the spin-orbit states of Br + (viz. 1D 2 ⇌ 3P 0,1) are observed but all attempts to produce 1D 2 ⇌ 3P 2 have failed. Relativistic Cl calculations of lowlying states of KrBr + have been carried out to explain the above experimental observations.
