The Fine Structure of Alkali Metal Atoms in Inelastic Collisions with Hydrogen

详细

A method is proposed for calculating the rate constants of inelastic processes occurring during collisions of alkali metal atoms and their positive ions with hydrogen atoms and negative ions, taking into account the sublevels of the fine structure of alkali metal levels. The results of the application of the proposed method are presented in this paper based on the example of the KH and RbH collisional systems.
