Excitation of molecular hydrogen by cosmic-ray protons

Marco Padovani, Daniele Galli, Corey T. Plowman +4

Low-energy cosmic rays ( GeV) are responsible for the ionisation and heating of molecular clouds. While the role of supra-thermal electrons produced in the ionisation…

Ultraviolet H luminescence in molecular clouds induced by cosmic rays

Marco Padovani, Daniele Galli, Liam H. Scarlett +5

Galactic cosmic rays (CRs) play a crucial role in ionisation, dissociation, and excitation processes within dense cloud regions where UV radiation is absorbed by dust grains and ga…

Photoionization from the ground and excited vibrational states of H+2 and its deuterated isotopologues

Adam Singor, Liam H. Scarlett, Mark C. Zammit +2

Photoionization cross sections and rate coefficients have been calculated for all bound vibrational levels of the 1s state of H, HD, and D…

Cosmic rays in molecular clouds probed by H rovibrational lines -- Perspectives for the James Webb Space Telescope

Marco Padovani, Shmuel Bialy, Daniele Galli +7

Cosmic rays (CRs) at sub-TeV energies play a fundamental role in the chemical and dynamical evolution of molecular clouds, as they control the ionisation, dissociation, and excitat…

Isotopic and vibrational-level dependence of H dissociation by electron impact

Liam H. Scarlett, Dmitry V. Fursa, Jack Knol +2

The low-energy electron-impact dissociation of molecular hydrogen has been a source of disagreement between various calculations and measurements for decades. Excitation of the gro…

Benchmark Calculations of Electron Impact Electronic Excitation of the Hydrogen Molecule

T. Meltzer, J. Tennyson, Z. Mašín +4

We present benchmark integrated and differential cross-sections for electron collisions with H using two different theoretical approaches, namely, the R-matrix and molecular co…
