Abstract :
The reactivity of H + D2(v = 0, j = 0) → HD(v′,j′) + D has been investigated in a high resolution crossed molecular beam experiment at a collision energy of 2.2 eV. Time-of-flight (TOF) spectra of D atoms at different laboratory (LAB) scattering angles and their total angular distribution were measured using the technique of Rydberg atom TOF spectroscopy. The resolution of this technique allows the identification of individual rovibrational states of the corresponding HD product molecule at the different LAB angles. A detailed simulation of the experimental measurements has been performed by using state resolved differential cross sections from quasiclassical trajectory (QCT) calculations on the Liu-Siegbahn-Truhlar-Horowitz (LSTH) and on the double-many-body-expansion (DMBE) potential energy surfaces (PES). A general good agreement between experiment and theory is found, although there are some discrepancies which are discussed.
