We review the theoretical status of intense laser induced orientation and alignment-a field of
study which lies at the interface of intense laser physics and chemical dynamics and having …

In the realm of molecular collision dynamics, stereochemistry refers to the dependence of
the collision outcome on the mutual orientation of the colliding partners. This may involve …

The collision geometry, that is, the relative orientation of reactants before interaction, can
have a large effect on how a collision or reaction proceeds. Certain geometries may prevent …

Understanding the molecular forces that drive a reaction or scattering process lies at the
heart of molecular dynamics. Here, we present a combined experimental and theoretical …

The rotationally inelastic collisions of NO (X) with Ar, in which the NO bond-axis is oriented
side-on (ie, perpendicular) to the incoming collision partner, are investigated experimentally …

Spin–orbit changing transitions for bond-axis oriented collisions of NO (X) with Ar have been
investigated with full quantum state selection via a crossed molecular beam experiment at …

This paper deals with the treatment of quantum interferences in the semiclassical initial
value theory of rotationally inelastic scattering in the interaction picture. Like many …

Building on our previous work on NO+ Ar, this paper presents a complete set of orientation
measurements and quantum mechanical calculations for the NO+ Kr collision system …

As shown by WH Miller in a seminal article [J. Chem. Phys. 53, 3578 (1970)], the most
convenient and accurate semiclassical (SC) theory of molecular scattering in action-angle …

We take H^++ CO as a prototype to analyze the effect of ion or proton collision on molecular
orientation modulated by a two-color shaped pulse combined with the time-delayed …
