摘要：

Measurements are reported for the scattering of molecular oxygen with both a hot rotational energy distribution and cooled at its ground rotational state with a controlled alignment of the rotational angular momentum. The cooling and control of the alignment are achieved using supersonic expansion in beams of molecular oxygen seeded in various mixtures of Ne, He, and H2 and monitored by a Stern-Gerlach magnetic deflection technique. It is shown by the example of integral scattering cross section with Xe in the glory energy range that information can be obtained on the isotropic and anisotropic components of intermolecular van der Waals interactions. © 1995 The American Physical Society.
