Journal ArticleDOI
Theory of Thermal Unimolecular Reactions in the Fall‐off Range. II. Weak Collision Rate Constants
TL;DR: In this paper, weak collision broadening factors were derived and represented empirically for thermal unimolecular reactions in the fall-off range, which are useful for data representation and modeling of complex reaction system which involve isomerization, dissociation and recombination reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trajectory simulations of collisional energy transfer in highly excited benzene and hexafluorobenzene
TL;DR: In this paper, the energy transfer of highly vibrationally excited benzene and hexafluorobenzene (HFB) molecules colliding with helium, argon and xenon have been performed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultraviolet laser ablation of polymers: spot size, pulse duration and plume attenuation effects explained.
TL;DR: In this paper, a model for ultraviolet (UV) laser ablation of polymers is presented, which is very successfully applied to the calculation of a variety of different properties of this process, including the influence of plume attenuation dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shock wave study of the unimolecular dissociation of H2O2 in its falloff range and of its secondary reactions
Ch. Kappel,Klaus Luther,J. Troe +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the thermal decomposition of H2O2 was studied behind reflected shock waves using absorption spectroscopy at 215 nm with light from a laser source and at 215, 230, and 290 nm with UV lamp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Collisional energy transfer probabilities of highly excited molecules from kinetically controlled selective ionization (KCSI). II. The collisional relaxation of toluene: P(E′,E) and moments of energy transfer for energies up to 50 000 cm−1
TL;DR: In this paper, a transition probability density function P(E′,E) for collisions between a large, highly vibrationally excited molecule, toluene, and several bath gases was determined for the first time.
