New quantum scattering calculations for rotational deexcitation transitions of CO induced by H collisions using two CO-H potential energy surfaces (PESs) from Shepler et al. (2007) are reported. State-to-state rate coefficients are computed…

We have studied the fundamental rotational relaxation and excitation collision of OH- J=0 <-> 1 with helium at different collision energies. Using state-selected photodetachment in a cryogenic ion trap, the collisional excitation of the…

Collisional excitation rate coefficients play an important role in the dynamics of energy transfer in the interstellar medium. In particular, accurate rotational excitation rates are needed to interpret microwave and infrared observations…

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…
