Time-Dependent Quantum Study of H(2S)+FO(2?) ? OH(2?)+F(2P) Reaction on the 13A? and 13A States

Abstract

The dynamics of the H(S-2)+ FO((2)Pi) -> OH((2)Pi)+ F(P-2) reaction on the adiabatic potential energy surface of the 1(3)A ' and 1(3)A '' states is investigated. The initial state selected reaction probabilities for total angular momentum J = 0 have been calculated by using the quantum mechanical real wave packet method. The integral cross sections and initial state selected reaction rate constants have been obtained from the corresponding J = 0 reaction probabilities by means of the simple J-Shifting technique. The initial state-selected reaction probabilities and reaction cross section do not manifest any sharp oscillations and the initial state selected reaction rate constants are sensitive to the temperature.
