摘要
We present an experimental study on the rotational inelastic scattering of OH (X-2 Pi(3/2), J = 3/2, f) radicals with He and D-2 at collision energies between 100 and 500 cm(-1) in a crossed beam experiment. The OH radicals are state selected and velocity tuned using a Stark decelerator. Relative parity-resolved state-to-state inelastic scattering cross sections are accurately determined. These experiments complement recent low-energy collision studies between trapped OH radicals and beams of He and D-2 that are sensitive to the total (elastic and inelastic) cross sections [ Sawyer et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 203203 (2008)], but for which the measured cross sections could not be reproduced by theoretical calculations [Pavlovic et al., J. Phys. Chem. A113, 14670 (2009)]. For the OH-He system, our experiments validate the inelastic cross sections determined from rigorous quantum calculations.
