โฆ Synopsis
Emphasizing dissociation, the energy transfer AE to a diatomic Morse oscillator in state tt by collision with an atom is treated in a onedimensional model. The quantum-mechanical impulse approximation yields a closed analytic expression for the differential transfer probability P,,(Ae). Except for unessential distortions, the shape of the P,,(Ae) distributions is a representation of the momentum distributions of the initial states n of the molecule. The mean energy transfer Gis discussed as a function of the internal energy of the molecule and of the kinetic collision energy.
