The problem of asymptotic non-adiabatic couplings in heavy particle collisions is treated using the reprojection method. The mixing matrix that mixes the asymptotic solutions of the coupled states to obtain appropriate boundary conditions is here derived to second order, yielding a faster convergence of the cross section. In addition, the reprojection method is implemented in a diabatic representation and applied to inelastic scattering of Li + Na and H + H collisions and to mutual neutralization in H+ + H- collisions.

We had calculated adiabatic potential energy surfaces (PESs), nonadiabatic, and spin-orbit (SO) coupling terms among the lowest three electronic states (1A', 2A', and 1A″) of the F + H system using the multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) level of theory, and the adiabatic-to-diabatic transformation equations were solved to formulate the diabatic Hamiltonian matrix [ , , 174301] for the entire region of the nuclear configuration space. The accuracy of such diabatic PESs is explored by performing scattering calculations to evaluate integral cross sections (ICSs) and rate constants. The nonadiabatic and SO effects are studied by utilizing coupled 3D time-dependent wave packet formalism with zero and nonzero total angular momentum on multiple adiabatic/diabatic surfaces calculation.

Fully converged nonadiabatic dynamics calculations of the D + H → H + HD reaction are performed at low temperatures using the time-dependent wave packet approach based on a set of precise 3 × 3 diabatic potential energy surfaces (PESs) ( , 2021, 23, 7735-7747, DOI: 10.1039/D0CP04100A). The D + H reaction is mediated by a dense manifold of resonances associated with the deep potential well on the ground-state PES.

The (time-independent) Schrödinger equation for atomistic systems is solved by using the adiabatic potential energy curves (PECs) and the associated adiabatic approximation. In cases where interactions between electronic states become important, the associated nonadiabatic effects are taken into account via derivative couplings (DDRs), also known as nonadiabatic couplings (NACs). For diatomic molecules, the corresponding PECs in the adiabatic representation are characterized by avoided crossings.

We have carried out fully close-coupled three dimensional quantum mechanical wave packet dynamical calculations for the reaction He+H2+→HeH++H on the ground electronic adiabatic potential energy surface and on the lowest two electronic states of newly constructed ab initio calculated diabatic potential energy surfaces for the system [Naskar et al., J.
