We show that the cross sections for molecule - molecule collisions in the presence of an external field can be computed efficiently using a total angular momentum basis, defined either in the body-fixed frame or in the space-fixed…
Absolute dissociation cross sections are reported for Hn+ clusters of varied mass (n = 3, 5, ..., 35) following collisions with He atoms at 60 keV / amu. Initial results have been published in a previous brief report for a smaller range of…
Carbon monoxide is a simple molecule present in many astrophysical environments, and collisional excitation rate coefficients due to the dominant collision partners are necessary to accurately predict spectral line intensities and extract…
The use of the hyperspherical harmonic (HH) basis in the description of bound states in an $A$-body system composed by identical particles is normally preceded by a symmetrization procedure in which the statistic of the system is taken into…
If an excess potentially heralding new physics is noticed in collider data, it would be useful to be able to compare the data with entire classes of models at once. This talk discusses a method that applies when the new physics corresponds…
We describe bound states, resonances and elastic scattering of light ions using a $\delta$-shell potential. Focusing on low-energy data such as energies of bound states and resonances, charge radii, asymptotic normalization coefficients,…
Inelastic processes rate coefficients for low-energy Sr + H, Sr$^+$ + H$^-$, Sr$^+$ + H and Sr$^{2+}$ + H$^-$ collisions are calculated using multichannel quantum model approach. 31 scattering channels of SrH$^+$ and 17 scattering channels…
We report numerically exact quantum scattering calculations on magnetic Feshbach resonances in ultracold, strongly anisotropic atom-molecule [Rb($^2$S) + SrF($^2\Sigma^+$)] collisions based on state-of-the-art ab initio potential energy…
Representing a strongly interacting multi-particle wave function in a finite product basis leads to errors. Simple rescaling of the contact interaction can preserve the low-lying energy spectrum and long-wavelength structure of wave…
Calculations are performed for electron collision with the methylene molecular ion CH$_2^+$ in its bent equilibrium geometry, with the goal to obtain cross sections for electron impact excitation and dissociation. The polyatomic version of…
Collisional resonances of molecules can offer a deeper understanding of interaction potentials and collision complexes, and allow control of chemical reactions. Here, we experimentally map out the spectrum of Feshbach resonances in…
We explore the quantum dynamics of nuclear spin relaxation in cold collisions of $^1\Sigma^+$ molecules with structureless atoms in an external magnetic field. To this end, we develop a rigorous coupled-channel methodology, which accounts…
The ultracold mixture of \Na and \Rb atoms has become an important system for investigating physics in Bose-Bose atomic mixtures and for forming ultracold ground-state polar molecules. In this work, we provide an improved characterization…
An intriguing phenomenon in molecular collisions is the occurrence of scattering resonances, which originate from bound and quasi-bound states supported by the interaction potential at low collision energies. The resonance effects in the…
We show that the integral cross sections for state-to-state quantum scattering of cold molecules in a magnetic field can be efficiently computed using the total angular momentum representation despite the presence of unphysical Zeeman…
Scattering resonances play a central role in collision processes in physics and chemistry. They help building an intuitive understanding of the collision dynamics due to the spatial localization of the scattering wavefunctions. For…
We consider the magnetically tunable Feshbach resonances that may exist in ultracold mixtures of molecules in $^2\Sigma$ states and alkali-metal atoms. We focus on Rb+CaF as a prototype system. There are likely to be Feshbach resonances…
The hydroxyl radical, OH, is an important component of many natural and technological plasmas but there is little available information on processes involving its collisions with low-energy electrons. Low-energy electron collisions with OH…
Cold molecules are important for many applications, from fundamental precision measurements, quantum information processing, quantum-controlled chemistry, to understanding the cold interstellar medium. Molecular ions are known to be cooled…
Helium atoms in the metastable $2^3{S_{1}}$ state (He$^*$) have unique advantages for ultracold atomic experiments. However, there is no known accessible Feshbach resonance in He$^*$, which could be used to manipulate the scattering length…
