Using the ab initio computed Potential Energy Surface (PES) for the electronic interaction of the MgH$^+$ ($^1\Sigma$) ion with the He($^1$S) atom, we calculate the relevant state-changing rotationally inelastic collision cross sections…

Based on recent $Herschel$ results, the ortho-to-para ratio (OPR) of NH$_2$ has been measured towards the following high-mass star-forming regions: W31C (G10.6-0.4), W49N (G43.2-0.1), W51 (G49.5-0.4), and G34.3+0.1. The OPR at thermal…

Transition intensities for small molecules such as water and CO$_2$ can now be computed with such high accuracy that they are being used to systematically replace measurements in standard databases. These calculations use high accuracy ab…

A new potential energy surface (PES) and dynamical study are presented of the reactive process between H2CO + OH towards the formation of HCO + H2O and HCOOH + H. In this work a source of spurious long range interactions in symmetry adapted…

The interpretation of water line emission from existing observations and future HIFI/Herschel data requires a detailed knowledge of collisional rate coefficients. Among all relevant collisional mechanisms, the rotational (de)excitation of…

State-to-state differential cross sections (DCSs) for rotationally inelastic scattering of H2O by H2 have been measured at 71.2 meV (574 cm-1) and 44.8 meV (361 cm-1) collision energy using crossed molecular beams combined with velocity map…

We present the first fully ab initio calculations of collision-induced broadening and shift of spectral lines in antiprotonic helium ($\bar{p}$He$^{+}$) perturbed by atomic helium. To overcome critical limitations of previous studies, we…

Low-energy elastic and inelastic scattering in the Ps(1$s$)-Ps(2$s$) channel is treated in a four-body hyperspherical coordinate calculation. Adiabatic potentials are calculated for triplet-triplet, singlet-singlet, and singlet-triplet spin…

We develop an analytic model of thermal state-to-state rotationally inelastic collisions of asymmetric-top molecules with closed-shell atoms in electric fields, and apply it to the Ar--H$_2$O collision system. The predicted cross sections…

We employ an accurate, ab initio potential energy surface (PES) which describes the electronic interaction energy between the molecular anion OH$^-$ ($^1\Sigma^+$) and the neutral rubidium atom Rb ($^2S$), to evaluate the elastic and…

Cross sections have been computed for rotational transitions of H2, induced by collisions with H atoms, using a recent H - H2 potential calculated by Mielke et al. [1]. These results are compared with those obtained with earlier potentials.…

Hydronium (H$_3$O$^+$) was first detected in 1986 in interstellar molecular clouds. It was reported in many galactic diffuse and dense regions, as well as in extragalactic sources. H$_3$O$^+$ plays a major role both in interstellar oxygen…

Context. In dffuse interstellar clouds the excitation temperature derived from the lowest levels of H$^+_3$ is systematically lower than that derived from H2. The differences may be attributed to the lack of state-specific formation and…

We use accurate ab initio and quantum scattering calculations to explore the prospects for sympathetic cooling of the heavy molecular radical SrOH($^2\Sigma$) by ultracold Li atoms in a magnetic trap. A two-dimensional potential energy…

The H$_2$+H$_2$ system has long been considered as a benchmark system for ro-vibrational energy transfer in bimolecular collisions. However, most studies thus far have focused on collisions involving H$_2$ molecules in the ground…

Currently, quantum scattering calculations cannot be used for quantitative predictions of molecular scattering observables at ultralow temperatures. This is a result of two problems: the extreme sensitivity of the scattering observables to…

We present detailed calculations on resonances in rotationally and spin-orbit inelastic scattering of OH ($X\,^2\Pi, j=3/2, F_1, f$) radicals with He and Ne atoms. We calculate new \emph{ab initio} potential energy surfaces for OH-He, and…

We present the first accurate rate coefficients for the rotational excitation of CO by H2O in the kinetic temperature range 5-100 K. The statistical adiabatic channel method (SACM) is combined with a high-level rigid-rotor CO-H2O…

Six-dimensional quantum dynamical calculations of the scattering of H_2 from a Pd(100) surface using a potential energy surface derived from density-functional theory calculations are presented. Due to the corrugation and anisotropy of the…

The dynamics of the reaction H + OH $\to$ O (3P) + H2 have been studied in a series of quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) calculations and transition state theory (TST) methods using high quality 3A' and 3A'' potential energy surfaces (PESs).…
