Correlated electronic potential-energy surfaces for proton interactions with N2 Original Research Article

Highly correlated, quantum calculations have been carried out for the lower-lying electronic states of the (N2H)+ system over a broad range of relative distances and of internuclear coordinate values. The two main approaches of the impinging proton for the H+N2 entrance channel are considered, i.e., the collinear and the perpendicular approach.
