Vibrationally resolved NO dissociative excitation cross sections by electron impact

Abstract

A theoretical investigation of the dissociative excitation by electron impact on the NO molecule is presented, aiming to make up for the lack of data for this process in the literature. A full set of vibrationally-resolved cross sections and corresponding rate coefficients are calculated using the Local-Complex-Potential approach and five resonant states of NO^-.
