Charge Transfer Reaction of O3++H→O2++H+ in Low Energy Collision

The total charge transfer cross-sections have been computed for the collision of O³⁺+H in the energy range of 2-240 keV. The PSS method with the classical trajectory is employed to obtain the cross-sections. The reaction channels which have the avoided crossing with the incoming channel at the internuclear distance less than 20 a.u. have been included into the calculation. The computed cross-section is found to be relatively constant as a function of the collision energy. The computed cross-sections are considerably large in comparsion with the experimental data by Phaneuf, but are of the same order of magnitude as the experimental result given by Gardner.
