Abstract

Probabilities and cross sections for simultaneous rotational transitions in collision between HCl molecules have been calculated for a relative kinetic energy of 0.025 eV. The calculations have been made for two sets of initial states, j1 0=0, j2 0=1 and j1 0=0, j2 0=0. All energetically accessible rotational channels were included in the semiclassical strong-coupling formalism. The special features of the resonant transition have been shown. The oscillatory behaviour of various transition probabilities with impact parameters have been physically interpreted as the consequence of interference between different intermediate transitions leading to the same final state, as well as between different terms of the coupling potential.
