A fully quantum mechanical treatment is presented of the three-body recombination process H + H + 4He → H2 + 4He for T = 1 K where measurements have recently been performed. The calculation employs accurate interatomic potentials and thermal averaging. An impulse approximation is used to obtain the most important contributions to the rate constant. Off-shell effects are found to be important and are included in the final results which are in reasonable agreement with experiment. We find that the rate of formation of ortho-H2 is substantially larger than that of para-H2. The magnetic field dependence of the recombination rate is also discussed.

Two new structures of semisynthetic ergot alkaloid terguride created by unusual number of symmetry-independent molecules were determined by X-ray diffraction methods at 150 K. Form A (monoclinic, P212121, Z = 12) contains three symmetry-independent terguride molecules and two molecules of water in the asymmetric part of the unit cell. The form CA (monoclinic, P21, Z = 8) is an anhydrate remarkable by the presence of four symmetry-independent molecules in the crystal structure. Conformations of twelve symmetry-independent molecules that were found in four already described terguride structures are compared with torsion angles obtained by ab initio quantum-mechanical calculations for the simplified model of N-cyclohexyl-N'-diethylurea.
