Spin-orbit relaxation of Cl(2P1/2) and F(2P1/2) in a gas of H2.
The authors present quantum scattering calculations of rate coefficients for the spin-orbit relaxation of F(2P1/2) atoms in a gas of H2 molecules and Cl(2P1/2) atoms in a gas of H2 and D2 molecules. Their calculation of the thermally averaged rate coefficient for the electronic relaxation of chlorine in H2 agrees very well with an experimental measurement at room temperature. It is found that t...
متن کاملCaesium 6P fine-structure mixing and quenching induced by collisions with ground-state caesium atoms and molecules
Applying the cw laser fluorescence method, the cross sections for the fine structure mixing and quenching of the Cs 6P state, induced by collisions with ground-state caesium atoms and molecules, have been measured. Caesium atoms were optically excited to the 5DJ states via quadrupole-allowed 6S1/2 → 5DJ transitions, while the resonance states were populated by the radiative and collisional 5DJ ...
متن کاملSpin-orbit interaction in bent carbon nanotubes: resonant spin transitions.
We develop an effective tight-binding Hamiltonian for spin-orbit (SO) interaction in bent carbon nanotubes (CNT) for the electrons forming the π bonds between the nearest neighbor atoms. We account for the bend of the CNT and the intrinsic spin-orbit interaction which introduce mixing of π and σ bonds between the p(z) orbitals along the CNT. The effect contributes to the main origin of the SO c...
متن کاملSympathetic cooling of polyatomic molecules with S-state atoms in a magnetic trap.
We present a rigorous theoretical study of low-temperature collisions of polyatomic molecular radicals with (1)S(0) atoms in the presence of an external magnetic field. Accurate quantum scattering calculations based on ab initio and scaled interaction potentials show that collision-induced spin relaxation of the prototypical organic molecule CH(2)(X(3)B(1)) (methylene) and nine other triatomic ...
متن کاملCollision-induced spin exchange of alkali-metal atoms with He: An ab initio study
We present a rigorous quantum study of spin-exchange transitions in collisions of the alkali-metal atoms with He in the presence of an external magnetic field. Using accurate ab initio interaction potentials, we obtain refined estimates for the Fermi contact interaction constants for complexes of Na, K, and Rb atoms with He. Ab initio calculations show that the Fermi contact interaction in Li-H...
