To investigate the dynamics mechanism of the Br + HgBr → Br2 + Hg reaction, the quasi-classical trajectory calculations are performed on Balabanov’s potential energy surface (PES) of ground electronic state. Both the scalar and vector properties are investigated to recognize the dynamics of the title reaction. Reaction probability for the total angular momentum quantum number J = 0 is determined at the collision energies (denoted as Ec) in a range of 1–25 kcal/mol, and the product vibrational distributions are given and compared between Ec = 20 and 40 kcal/mol. Other calculation values characterizing product polarizations including polarization-dependent differential cross sections (PDDCSs), distributions of P(θr), P([Formula: see text]), and P(θr, [Formula: see text]), are all discussed and compared between the two different collision energies in detail to analyze the alignment and orientation characteristics. It is revealed that the products prefer forward scattering and the PDDCSs are anisotropic in the whole range of the scattering angle. The product rotational angular momentum j′ shows a tendency to align perpendicular to the reagent relative velocity k. In fact, the product polarization of the title reaction is weak at both collision energies. In terms of horizontal comparison, the alignment is slightly stronger but the orientation is even less remarkable at higher collision energy.

Collisions that produce a change in the total angular-momentum and quenching processes involving the triplet Z3F0 titanium excited level and diatomic molecules have been studied by laser perturbation and time-resolved spectroscopy. The thermally averaged total angular-momentum changing cross sections (z3Fi0→z3Fj0) in units of 10−16cm2 are: σ¯42=3.2±1, 1.4±0.5; σ¯43=13.3±2, 6.8±1; σ¯32 =19.0±2, 7.2±1 , respectively, for nitrogen and hydrogen colliding partners.Large quenching cross sections are obtained, as σ−QN2=53±7, and σ−QH2=38±4 in units of 10-16 cm2. These results are discussed in relation with previous measurements dealing with titanium-noble-gas collisions, and with available published results.

Quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) calculations of total reaction probabilities and vibrationally state-resolved reaction probabilities at total angular momentum J = 0 as a function of collision energy for the C(1D) + H2 (v = 0, j = 0) reactions have been performed on an ab initio potential-energy surface [ J. Chem. Phys. 2001, 115, 10701]. In addition, the integral cross sections as a function of collision energy have been carried out for the same reaction. The product rotational alignments have also been calculated, which are almost invariant with respect to collision energies.
