Calculations of vibrationally state-selected cross sections are reported for the H+HOD+H,+OD reaction. A quantum-mechanical method is used which involves a close-coupling expansion in all three vibrational modes of HOD. It is found that initial vibrational excitation of the OH bond in HOD enhances t

✦ Synopsis
Application of the electron nuclear dynamics END theory to the H q HOD reaction for the reactants in their ground state is reported. A very small electronic basis is used to study the behavior of the equations of motion for this case. The results show cross sections to be too large in comparisons to other approaches and to experiment, while the product ratio for the abstraction reaction of H versus D is adequately predicted. Also the exchange reaction cross sections for both H and D products are predicted.

The OH/OD bond breaking selectivity in HOD photodissociation is studied on the first excited state using a quantum-mechanical time-dependent technique. A simple two-photon scheme is presented to produce pure OD t H. The first photon prepares vibrationally excited HOD; the second, a UV photon, excite
We present a quasiclassical trajectory study of H + HOD ( v,, ul, Y, ) with an emphasis on how the reaction cross section and the branching between OH and OD products varies with the initial vibrational state of HOD and with relative translational energy. Comparison of the results for initial states
We show that strong light with the frequency slightly less then the 'gap' in electron spectrum of fused quartz cuts off macroscopic balls with fixed diameter 2 ± 0.2 lm and throws them out of the ablation crater. The reason for the phenomenon is the light driven electron bunching and generation of s
