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…
Accurate rate coefficients for molecular vibrational transitions due to collisions with H$_2$, critical for interpreting infrared astronomical observations, are lacking for most molecules. Quantum calculations are the primary source of such…
We report quantum-mechanical close-coupling calculations for rotational state resolved cross sections for p-H2+HD collisions. The low temperature limit of p-H2+HD is investigated, which is of significant astrophysical interest in regard to…
The H$_2$+H$_2$ system has long been considered as a benchmark system for ro-vibrational energy transfer in bimolecular collisions. However, most studies thus far have focused on collisions involving H$_2$ molecules in the ground…
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…

Results for quantum mechanical calculations of the integral cross sections and corresponding thermal rate coefficients for para-/ortho-H2+HD collisions are presented. Because of significant astrophysical interest in regard to the cooling of…
Cold collisions of light molecules are often dominated by a single partial wave resonance. For the rotational quenching of HD(v=1,j=2) by collisions with ground state para-H2, the process is dominated by a single L=2 partial wave resonance…

Modeling environments that are not in local thermal equilibrium, such as protoplanetary disks or planetary atmospheres, with molecular spectroscopic data from space telescopes requires knowledge of the rate coefficients of rovibrationally…

Quantum scattering calculations for strongly interacting molecular systems are computationally demanding due to the large number of molecular states coupled by the anisotropy of atom - molecule interactions. We demonstrate that thermal rate…
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.…
