The Influence of Collision Energy on the Reaction H+HS→H2+S

Abstract

Quasi-classical trajectory calculations have been carried out for the reaction H+HS by using the newest triplet 3A potential energy surface (PES). The effects of the collision energy and reagent initial rotational excitation are studied. The cross sections and thermal rate constants for the title reaction are calculated. The results indicate that the integral cross sections (ICSs) are sensitive to the collision energy and almost independent to the initial rotational states. The ro-vibrational distributions for the product at different collision energies are presented. The investigations on the vector correlations are also performed. It is found that the collision energies play a postive role on the forward scatter of the product molecules. There is a negative influence on both the alignment and orientation of the product angular momentum for low collision energy at low energy region. Whereas the influence of collision energy is not obvious at high energy region.
