Abstract

The classical dynamics of the collisions of hydrogen atoms with C2H has been studied using a six-dimensional potential-energy surface for the ground state of C2H2. At low collision energies complexes are formed which have predominantly acetylene rather than vinylidene geometries. The estimated rate constant for this recombination reaction is 100 times larger than a published value determined by transition-state theory.
