Abstract

The atom-atom-anion three-body recombination (TBR) and collision induced dissociation (CID) processes of the 3He–3He–T− system at ultracold temperatures are investigated by solving the Schrödinger equation in the adiabatic hyperspherical representation. The variations of the TBR and CID rates with the collision energies in the ultracold temperatures are obtained. It is found that the JΠ = 1− symmetry dominates the TBR and CID processes in most of the considered collision energy range. The rate of TBR (CID) into (from) the l = 1 anion is larger than those for the l = 0 and l = 2 anions, with the l representing the rotational quantum number of 3HeT−. This can be understood via the nonadiabatic couplings among the different channels.
