Potential energy curves for the (ArH)+ and (NeH)+ systems from the interplay of theory and experiments

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik D Atoms, Molecules and Clusters

Abstract

The ground state potential energy curves for protons interacting with Ar and Ne atoms are determined by the analysis of new, highly accurate measurements of the elastic differential cross sections at a laboratory collision energy of 14.8 eV. Accompanying theoretical results from SCF-CI calculations are used as starting points to generate analytic potentials that are able to fit all available experimental cross sections for both systems. The final results provide the full shape of the potential curves and give the best existing fit to the measured cross sections for elastic scattering at several energies from 2eV to 30eV.
