R. Celiberto et al., Electron-impact excitation cross sections of vibrationally excited X (1)Sigma(+)(g) H-2 and D-2 molecules to Rydberg states, PHYS REV A, 60(3), 1999, pp. 2091-2103
A complete set of total and dissociative electron-impact cross sections of
vibrationally excited H-2 and D-2 molecules has been calculated by using th
e impact-parameter method. Transitions to low-lying Rydberg states (X-->B'
,X-->B ", X-->D, X-->D') are considered. Finally, vibrational and mass scal
ing relations, able to reproduce the calculated cross sections, are present
