Chemistry and ro-vibrational excitation of CH in the planetary nebula NGC 7027
Milan Sil, Alexandre Faure, Helmut Wiesemeyer +5
Small carbon hydride cations, such as the methylidyne ion (CH), play an important role in the chemistry of the interstellar medium (ISM). They participate in gas-phase reaction…
Rotational excitation of asymmetric-top molecular ions by electron impact: application to HO, HDO, and DO
Joshua Forer
The rotational excitation of the three asymmetric-top molecular ion isotopologues HO, HDO, and DO is studied theoretically using a combined framework of electro…
Dissociative electron attachment to the HNC molecule
Elizabeth Aubin, Jean-Christophe Loison, Mehdi Ayouz +2
Dissociative electron attachment (DEA) to the HNC is modeled theoretically using a first-principles approach. In HNC+ collisions, there is a low-energy resonance, whic…
Dissociative Recombination of CF
Joshua Forer, Jeoffrey Boffelli, Mehdi Ayouz +4
This work presents our theoretical study of the dissociative recombination (DR) of the closed-shell diatomic system CF based on an approach recently applied to the CH molec…
Kinetic rate coefficients for electron-driven collisions with CH: dissociative recombination and rovibronic excitation
Joshua Forer, Dávid Hvizdoš, Mehdi Ayouz +2
Cross sections and rate coefficients for rovibronic excitation of the CH ion by electron impact and dissociative recombination of CH with electrons are evaluated using a th…
Bound and autoionizing potential energy curves in the CH molecule
David Hvizdos, Joshua Forer, Viatcheslav Kokoouline +1
This article presents a method of computing bound state potential curves and autoionizing curves using fixed-nuclei R-matrix data extracted from the Quantemol-N software suite. It…
