Fine structure excitation of carbon and oxygen by atomic hydrogen impact.
Abstract
Fine structure excitation cross-sections are calculated for C and O ground state atoms perturbed by atomic hydrogen in a close coupling quantal treatment. Results for C are compared with the elastic results of Yau and Dalgarno (1976), the same interatomic potentials being used.
