Abstract	We propose a method to steer the outcome of reactive atom-diatom scattering, using rotational wavepackets excited by strong non-resonant laser pulses. Full close-coupled quantum mechanical scattering calculations of the D+H2 and F+H2 reactions are presented, where the H2 molecule exists as a coherent superposition of rotational states. The nuclear spin selective control over the molecular bond axis alignment afforded by the creation of rotational wavepackets is applied to reactive scattering systems, enabling a nuclear spin selective influence to be exerted over the reactive dynamics. The extension of the conventional eigenstate-to-eigenstate scattering problem to the case in which the initial state is composed of a coherent superposition of rotational states is detailed, and a selection of example calculations are discussed, along with their mechanistic implications. The feasibility of the corresponding experiments is considered, and a suitable simple two pulse laser scheme is shown to strongly differentiate the reactivities of o-H2 and p-H2.

Abstract	We present full quantum mechanical scattering calculations using spinning molecules as target states for nuclear spin selective atom-diatom scattering of reactive D+H2 and F+H2 collisions. Molecules can be forced to rotate uni-directionally by chiral trains of short, non-resonant laser pulses, with different nuclear spin isomers rotating in opposite directions. The calculations we present are based on rotational wavepackets that can be created in this manner. As our simulations show, target molecules with opposite sense of rotation are predominantly scattered in opposite directions, opening routes for spatially and quantum state selective scattering of close chemical species. Moreover, two-dimensional state resolved differential cross sections reveal detailed information about the scattering mechanisms, which can be explained to a large degree by a classical vector model for scattering with spinning molecules.

Abstract	Adiabatic potential energy surfaces for the ground electronic state of the Xe⋅⋅⋅NO(X(2)Π) van der Waals complex have been calculated using the spin-restricted coupled cluster method with single, double, and non-iterative triple excitations (RCCSD(T)). The scalar relativistic effects present in the Xe atom were included by an effective core potential and we extended the basis with bond functions to improve the description of the dispersion interaction. It has been found that the global minimum on the A(') adiabatic surface occurs at a T-shaped geometry with γ(e) = 94° and R(e) = 7.46 a(0), and with well depth of D(e) = 148.68 cm(-1). There is also an additional local minimum for the collinear geometry Xe-NO with a well depth of 104.5 cm(-1). The adiabat of A('') symmetry exhibits a single minimum at a distance R(e) = 7.68 a(0) and has a skewed geometry with γ(e) = 64° and a well depth of 148.23 cm(-1). Several C(nl) van der Waals dispersion coefficients are also estimated, of which C(6, 0) and C(6, 2) are in a reasonable agreement with previous theoretical results obtained by Nielson et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 64, 2055 (1976)]. The new potential energy surfaces were used to calculate bound states of the complex for total angular momentum quantum numbers up to J = 7/2. The ground state energy of Xe⋅⋅⋅NO(X(2)Π) is D(0) = 117 cm(-1), which matches the experimental value very accurately (within 3.3%). Scattering calculations of integral and differential cross sections have also been performed using fully quantum close coupling calculations and quasi-classical trajectory method at a collision energy of 63 meV. These calculations reveal the important role played by L-type rainbows in the scattering dynamics of the heavier Rg-NO(X) systems.

Abstract	Quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) methods are presented which allow characterization of the angular momentum depolarization of the products of inelastic and reactive scattering. The particular emphasis of the theory is on three-vector correlations, and on the connection with the two-vector correlation between the initial and final angular momenta, j and j', which is amenable to experimental measurement. The formal classical theory is presented, and computational results for NO(A) + He are used to illustrate the type of mechanistic information provided by analysis of the two- and three-vector correlations. The classical j-j' two-vector correlation results are compared with quantum mechanical calculations, and are shown to be in good agreement. The data for NO(A) + He support previous conclusions [M. Brouard, H. Chadwick, Y.-P. Chang, R. Cireasa, C. J. Eyles, A. O. L. Via, N. Screen, F. J. Aoiz, and J. Kłos, J. Chem. Phys. 131, 104307 (2009)] that this system is only weakly depolarizing. Furthermore, it is shown that the projection of j along the kinematic apse is nearly conserved for this system under thermal collision energy conditions.

Abstract	This paper discusses the contrasting mechanisms of collisional angular momentum depolarization of OH(A(2)Σ(+)) and NO(A(2)Σ(+)) by Ar. New experimental results are presented for the collisional depolarization of OH(A) + Ar under both thermal and superthermal collision conditions, including cross sections for loss of both angular momentum orientation and alignment. Previous work on the two systems is summarized. It is shown that NO(A) + Ar depolarization is dominated by impulsive events in which the projection of the angular momentum, j, along the kinematic apse, a, is nearly conserved, and in which the majority of the trajectories can be described as "nearside." By contrast, at the relatively low collision energies sampled at 300 K, OH(A) + Ar depolarization is dominated by attractive collisions, which show a preponderance of "farside" trajectories. There is also evidence for very long-lived, complex type trajectories in which OH(A) and Ar orbit each other for several rotational periods prior to separation. Nevertheless, there is still a clear preference for conservation of the projection of j along the kinematic apse for both elastic and inelastic collisions. Experimental and theoretical results reveal that, as the collision energy is raised, the depolarization of OH(A) by Ar becomes more impulsive-like in nature.

Abstract	Rotational angular momentum alignment effects in the rotationally inelastic collisions of NO(X) with Ar have been investigated at a collision energy of 66 meV by means of hexapole electric field initial state selection coupled with velocity-map ion imaging final state detection. The fully quantum state resolved second rank renormalized polarization dependent differential cross sections determined experimentally are reported for a selection of spin-orbit conserving and changing transitions for the first time. The results are compared with the findings of previous theoretical investigations, and in particular with the results of exact quantum mechanical scattering calculations. The agreement between experiment and theory is generally found to be good throughout the entire scattering angle range. The results reveal that the hard shell nature of the interaction potential is predominantly responsible for the rotational alignment of the NO(X) upon collision with Ar.

Abstract	Cumulative reaction probabilities (CRPs) have been calculated by accurate (converged, close coupling) quantum mechanical (QM), quasiclassical trajectory (QCT), and statistical QCT (SQCT) methods for the H(+) + H(2) and H(+) + D(2) reactions at collision energies up to 1.2 eV and total angular momentum J = 0-4. A marked resonance structure is found in the QM CRP, most especially for the H(3)(+) system and J = 0. When the CRPs are resolved in their ortho and para contributions, a clear steplike structure is found associated with the opening of internal states of reactants and products. The comparison of the QCT results with those of the other methods evinces the occurrence of two transition states, one at the entrance and one at the exit. At low J values, except for the quantal resonance structure and the lack of quantization in the product channel, the agreement between QM and QCT is very good. The SQCT model, that reflects the steplike structure associated with the opening of initial and final states accurately, clearly tends to overestimate the value of the CRP as the collision energy increases. This effect seems more marked for the H(+) + D(2) isotopic variant. For sufficiently high J values, the growth of the centrifugal barrier leads to an increase in the threshold of the CRP. At these high J values the discrepancy between SQCT and QCT becomes larger and is magnified with growing collision energy. The total CRPs calculated with the QCT and SQCT methods allowed the determination of the rate constant for the H(+) + D(2) reaction. It was found that the rate, in agreement with experiment, decreases with temperature as expected for an endothermic reaction. In the range of temperatures between 200 and 500 K the differences between SQCT and QCT rate results are relatively minor. Although exact QM calculations are formidable for an exact determination of the k(T), it can be reliably expected that their value will lie between those given by the dynamical and statistical trajectory methods.

Abstract	Classical and quantum mechanical expressions for the j-j(') vector correlation (also referred to as the rotational tilt) are presented for the situation in which the initial and final relative velocity directions are unresolved. The quantum mechanical expressions are compared with previous descriptions in the literature. It is shown that in the case of (2S+1)Sigma radicals in collision with closed shell species, a tensor opacity formalism can be employed in quasiclassical trajectory calculations to provide classical estimates of both open shell spin-rotation state and nuclear hyperfine state changing (or conserving) cross sections. Polarization parameters are also obtained from the same formalism. The method is applied to calculations on the OH(A (2)Sigma(+))-Ar system using a recently developed potential energy surface. The results of both the closed and open shell quasiclassical trajectory calculations are found to compare favorably with those from close-coupled closed and open shell quantum mechanical scattering calculations. The accompanying paper provides an experimental test of these calculations and of the potential energy surface they employ.

Article ; Online: The effect of parity conservation on the spin-orbit conserving and spin-orbit changing differential cross sections for the inelastic scattering of NO(X) by Ar.

Abstract	The fully Λ-doublet resolved state-to-state differential cross sections (DCSs) for the collisions of NO(X, (2)Π, v = 0, j = 0.5) with Ar have been shown to depend sensitively on the conservation of the total parity of the NO molecular wavefunction. Parity changing collisions exhibit a single maximum only in the DCS, while parity conserving transitions exhibit multiple rainbow peaks. This behaviour is shown to arise directly from the constructive or destructive interference of collisions impacting on the two pointed ends and on the flatter middle of the NO molecule. A simple hard shell, four path model has been employed to determine the relative phase shifts of the paths contributing to the scattering amplitude. The model calculations using the V(sum) potential, together with the results of a quasi-quantum treatment, provide good qualitative agreement with the experimental spin-orbit conserving (ΔΩ = 0) DCSs, suggesting that the dynamics for all but the lowest Δj transitions are determined largely by the repulsive part of the potential. The collisions leading to spin-orbit changing transitions (ΔΩ = 1) have been also found to be dominated by repulsive forces, even for the lowest Δj values. However, they are less well reproduced by hard shell calculations, because of the crucial participation of the V(diff) potential in determining the outcome of these collisions.
