Abstract
Quasi-classical trajectory calculations have been performed on the adiabatically allowed reactions taking place on the two lowest-lying electronic states of the LiH2+ system, using the ab initio potential energy surfaces of Martinazzo et al. (J. Chem. Phys., 2003, 119, 11241). These reactions comprise: (i) the exoergic H2 and H2+ formation occurring through LiH+ + H and LiH + H+ collisions in the ground and in the first electronically excited state, respectively; (ii) the endoergic (ground state) LiH+ dissociation induced by collisions with H atoms; and (iii) the endoergic (excited state) Li + H2+ LiH + H+ reaction. The topic is of relevance for a better understanding of the lithium chemistry in the early universe. Thermal rate constants for the above reactions have been computed in the temperature range 10–5000 K and found in reasonably good agreement with estimates based on the capture model.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
