Dissociative recombination without curve crossings: NeH + and ArH +

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Experiments on dissociative recombination on ArH + show a small but nonzero cross section at low collision energies. Therefore, dissociative recombination of ArH + , as well as NeH + , is studied theoretically. Accurate fixed-nuclei electron-scattering calculations are performed to produce S -matrices that are used as input into a multichannel quantum defect treatment of the dissociation process. Results are compared to available experimental data.
