Robert A. Morris,Thomas M. Miller,A. A. Viggiano,John F. Paulson,Susan Solomon,George C. Reid +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-dimensional transport and chemistry model was used to evaluate the lifetime of the fully fluorinated compounds CF4, C2F6, c-C4F8, C6F14, and SF6.

Electron-induced chemistry of alcohols
TL;DR: For the monoalcohols, apart from the known fragmentations in the 6-12 eV range proceeding via Feshbach resonances, also new weaker processes at lower energies, around 3 eV are found, which have a steep onset at the dissociation threshold and show a dramatic D/H isotope effect.
Low-energy electron scattering by deoxyribose and related molecules
Carl Winstead,Vincent McKoy +1 more
TL;DR: To investigate the dependence of the scattering process on the molecular conformation, Cs and C2 conformers of THF as well as the planar C(2v) geometry imposed in earlier calculations are examined, which results in noticeable differences between the elastic cross sections determined at the nonplanar geometries.
Absolute and effective cross-sections for low-energy electron-scattering processes within condensed matter.
Andrew D. Bass,Léon Sanche +1 more
TL;DR: Effective cross- sections for neutral and ionic radical formation were generated by desorption and XPS experiments, and the corresponding cross-sections in the range 0–20 eV summarized.

A survey of electron swarm data
TL;DR: In this paper, the mean energy and energy distribution of a small number density n of electrons in a gas of much higher number density N is determined by the value of E/N where E is the electric field.

The theory of electron-molecule collisions
TL;DR: The current state of the theory and its application to low-energy electron-molecule collisions is reviewed in this paper, where the emphasis is on elastic scattering and vibrational and rotational excitation of small diatomic and polyatomic molecules.

Accurate and Facile Approximation for Vibrational Energy‐Level Sums
G. Z. Whitten,B. S. Rabinovitch +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, exact sums of harmonic vibrational energy-level densities for 45 molecules were obtained at various energies with a digital computer, and an improved "corresponding vibrational states" type of approximation was described.
