Abstract

Accurate quantum scattering dynamics calculations for the C+ + HD reactions on the ground 12A′ potential energy surface have been performed in the collision energy range of 0.05–1.0 eV. The present integral cross sections and branching ratios are compared with previous experimental and theoretical results. Both the CH+ and CD+ products are distributed in vibrational cold but rotational hot states. Total differential cross sections for both channels exhibit forward–backward symmetry. The state - resolved differential cross sections and the opacity functions show that the product rotational quantum numbers correlate strongly with the total angular momentum J.
