Quantum-Mechanical Treatment of Inelastic Collisions. II. Exchange Reactions

Abstract

The theory for the quantum-mechanical treatment of inelastic collisions developed in the first paper of this series is extended to treat collinear, electronically adiabatic exchange reactions. The formalism is applied to three model potential energy surfaces for the exchange of identical particles. The calculated reaction probabilities are reasonable and two independent checks indicate that they are reliable.
