Quasi-bound resonances of H$_2$ are produced via two-photon photolysis of H$_2$S molecules as reactive intermediates or transition states, and detected before decay of the parent molecule into three separate atoms. As was previously…
Two-photon UV-photolysis of hydrogen sulfide molecules is applied to produce hydrogen molecules in highly excited vibrational levels in the \X\ electronic ground state, up to the dissociation energy and into the quasibound region.…
Shape resonances in photoionization of atoms and molecules arise from a particular geometry of the ionic potential which traps the receding photoelectron in a quasi-bound state in a particular partial wave. This mechanism allows us to…
Resonances are among the clearest quantum mechanical signatures of scattering processes. Previously, shape resonances and Feshbach resonances have been observed in inelastic and reactive collisions involving atoms or diatomic molecules.…
We develop a simple model of shape resonances in electron-molecule collisions that is based on the modified effective-range expansion and analytical solutions of the Schrodinger equation for the long-range part of the interaction potential.…
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…
In molecular collisions, resonances occur at specific energies where the colliding particles temporarily form quasi-bound complexes, resulting in rapid variations in the energy dependence of scattering cross sections. Experimentally, it has…
The binding energies of the five bound rotational levels $J=0-4$ in the highest vibrational level $v=14$ in the X$^1\Sigma_g^+$ ground electronic state of H$_2$ were measured in a three-step ultraviolet-laser experiment. Two-photon…
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$^{-1}$…
A (diatomic) shape resonance is a metastable state of a pair of colliding atoms quasi-bound by the centrifugal barrier imposed by the angular momentum involved in the collision. The temporary trapping of the atoms' scattering wavefunction…
The pulsed-field-ionization zero-kinetic-energy photoelectron spectrum of H$_2$ has been recorded in the vicinity of the dissociative-ionization threshold following three-photon excitation via selected rotational levels of the B…
We theoretically study slow collisions of NH$_3$ molecules with He atoms, where we focus in particular on the observation of scattering resonances. We calculate state-to-state integral and differential cross sections for collision energies…
Resonances are associated with the trapping of an intermolecular complex, and are characterized by a series of quantum numbers such as the total angular momentum and the parity, representative of a specific partial wave. Here we show how at…
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 non-relativistic cross section from Rayleigh scattering by hydrogen atoms in the ground state is calculated over a wide range of photon energies ($< 0.8$ keV). Evaluations are performed in terms of the real and imaginary components of…
A moderately intense $450$ fs laser pulse is used to create rotational wave packets in gas phase $\rm{I_2}$ molecules. The ensuing time-dependent alignment, measured by Coulomb explosion imaging with a delayed probe pulse, exhibits the…
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…
The modelling of emission spectra of molecules seen in interstellar clouds requires the knowledge of collisional rate coefficients. Among the commonly observed species, N$_2$H$^+$ is of particular interest since it was shown to be a good…
We present numerical results for rate coefficients of reaction and vibrational quenching in the collision of H with D$_2(v,j)$ at cold and ultracold temperatures. We explore both ortho-D$_2(j\!=\!0)$ and para-D$_2(j\!=\!1)$ for several…
At low energies, the quantum wave-like nature of molecular interactions result in unique scattering behavior, ranging from the universal Wigner laws near zero Kelvin to the occurrence of scattering resonances at higher energies. It has…
