State-to-state chemistry and rotational excitation of CH in photon-dominated regions

A. Faure, P. Halvick, T. Stoecklin +9

We present a detailed theoretical study of the rotational excitation of CH due to reactive and nonreactive collisions involving C, H, CH, H and free electrons.…

Low-energy collisions between electrons and BeH: cross sections and rate coefficients for all the vibrational states of the ion

S. Niyonzima, S. Ilie, N. Pop +13

We provide cross sections and Maxwell rate coefficients for reactive collisions of slow electrons with BeH ions on all the eighteen vibrational levels ($X{^{1}Σ^{+}},v_{i}^{+}=…
