The kinetics and energetic relaxation associated with collisions between fast and thermal atoms are of fundamental interest for escape and therefore also for the evolution of the Mars atmosphere. The total and differential cross-sections of…
We report elastic and inelastic cross sections for fast superthermal $^{12}$C($^3P$) and $^{13}$C($^3P$) atoms scattering on $^{12}$CO$_2$. The cross sections were computed using quantum-mechanical rotationally close-coupling formalism with…
Collisions between hot hydrogen atoms and CO$_2$ play a central role in energy transfer and atmospheric escape in CO$_2$-rich planetary atmospheres. We present quantum mechanical $j_z$-conserving coupled-states calculations of…
We report the results of quantum scattering calculations for the O($^3$P)+H$_2$ reaction for a range of collision energies from 0.4 to 4.4 eV, important for astrophysical and atmospheric processes. The total and state-to-state reactive…
"Hot atoms", which are atoms in their excited states, transfer their energy to the surrounding atmosphere through collisions. This process of energy transfer is known as thermalization, and it plays a crucial role in various astrophysical…
The transition from a once-dense Martian atmosphere to the thin one observed today implies a substantial loss of carbon, either through atmospheric escape or surface deposition. Accurately modeling this carbon escape necessitates accounting…
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…
A recent modeling study of brightness ratios for CO rotational transitions in gas typical of the diffuse ISM by Liszt found the role of H collisions to be more important than previously assumed. This conclusion was based on quantum…

The collision dynamics of $^{17}O_2(^3\Sigma_g^-) +^{17}O_2(^3\Sigma_g^-)$ in the presence of a magnetic field is studied within the close-coupling formalism in the range between 10 nK and 50 mK. A recent global {\em ab initio} potential…
The variation with energy of the total cross section for elastic electron scattering from atoms of several elements is caused primarily by shape resonances corresponding to the formation of temporary negative ions. It is shown that such…
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…
We present an experimental study on the rotational inelastic scattering of OH ($X^2\Pi_{3/2}, J=3/2, f$) radicals with He and D$_2$ at collision energies between 100 and 500 cm$^{-1}$ in a crossed beam experiment. The OH radicals are state…
