Abstract

A theoretical study of the dynamics of the reaction C() + CH() using the quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) method has been performed based on the double many-body expansion (DMBE) potential energy surface (PES) [Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 2, 1693 (2000)]. The integral cross section, as well as the product rotational alignment factor ⟨p 2(j′ · k)⟩ and four polarization-dependent differential cross sections (PDDCSs), i.e. and were studied. Furthermore, the distribution of the dihedral angle and the distribution of the angle between k and j are discussed. The angular distribution of the product rotational vector was also calculated.
