Abstract

We analyse H+D 2 reactive angular scattering using the S-matrix elements obtained by Aoiz et al. and Althorpe et al. Enhancement of small angle scattering in the v ′=3← v=0 H+D 2 delayed reaction is attributed to a glory effect caused by threshold resonances in the v=3 vibrationally adiabatic channel. The oscillatory structures in the reactive angular distributions are shown to be of nearside–farside (NP) origin and are likely to arise from capture in a number of relatively short-lived barrier Regge states at large angular momenta. Padé reconstruction of the reactive matrix element is discussed in detail.
