Full-dimensional quantum scattering calculations are reported for ro-vibrational transitions in HD+HD collisions using a highly accurate interaction potential for the H$_2$-H$_2$ system. Several near-resonant ro-vibrational transitions are…

A scattering resonance is one of the most striking quantum effects in low-temperature molecular collisions. Predicted decades ago theoretically, they have only been resolved experimentally for systems involving at most four atoms. Extension…

Elastic scattering cross sections are measured for lithium atoms colliding with rare gas atoms and SF6 molecules at tunable relative velocities down to ~50 m/s. Our scattering apparatus combines a velocity-tunable molecular beam with a…

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 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…

A close coupling quantum-mechanical calculation is performed for rotational energy transfer in a HD+HD collision at very low energy, down to the ultracold temperatures: $T \sim 10^{-8}$ K. A global six-dimensional H$_2$-H$_2$ potential…

The experimental characterization of scattering resonances in low energy collisions has proven to be a stringent test for quantum chemistry calculations. Previous measurements on the NO-H$_2$ system at energies down to $10$ cm$^{-1}$…

We present a treatment of cold hydrogen-antihydrogen collisions based on the asymptotic properties of atom-antiatom interactions. We derive general formulas for the elastic and inelastic cross sections and for the scattering lengths and…

A semiclassical analysis of an optical potential cross section is presented. The cross section considered is characterized by the appearance of an Airy-like pattern. This pattern is similar to that which is present in many cross sections,…

Stereodynamics of cold collisions has become a fertile ground for quantized studies of molecular collisions and control of the collision outcome. A benchmark process for stereodynamic control is rotational transition in He+HD collisions.…

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…

We study the elastic scattering of a planar wave in the curved spacetime of a compact object such as a neutron star, via a heuristic model: a scalar field impinging upon a spherically-symmetric uniform density star of radius $R$ and mass…

A new database of collisional rate coefficients for transitions between the rotational states of H$_2$O collided with H$_2$ background gas is developed. The goal is to expand over the other existing databases in terms of the rotational…

We perform a systematic study of inelastic nuclear rainbow scattering for the \oc system to the 2$^+$ (4.44 MeV) state of $^{12}$C at incident energies of 100--608 MeV with the coupled-channels method. The recently generalized…

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…

The atmospheric reaction of H$_2$S with Cl has been reinvestigated to check if, as previously suggested, only explicit dynamical computations can lead to an accurate evaluation of the reaction rate because of strong recrossing effects 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.…

Chloronium (H$_2$Cl$^+$) is an important intermediate of Cl-chemistry in space. The accurate knowledge of its collisional properties allows a better interpretation of the corresponding observations in interstellar clouds and therefore a…

Inelastic $^{16}$O +$^{12}$C rainbow scattering to the $2^+$ (4.44 MeV) state of $^{12}$C was measured at the incident energies, $E_L$ = 170, 181, 200, 260 and 281 MeV. A systematic analysis of the experimental angular distributions was…
