✦ Synopsis
The angular and velocity distribution of the Cl0 product from the reaction O( 'D) + HCI at 12.2 kcal/mol collision energy has been obtained in a crossed-molecular-beam study. The product center-of-mass angular distribution is found to be almost backward-forward symmetric, with backward scattering being slightly favored, from which it is deduced that part of the reaction occurs via a long-lived complex and part via direct abstraction of the halogen atom. The derived large fraction ( x 43%) of energy released into translation indicates the existence of a barrier in the exit channel. A lower limit of the branching ratio between Cl0 + H and OH +Cl channels is derived and is compared to recent bulk results.
