Energy pooling collisions

Energy-pooling collisions are collisions of N2 atoms with N2 atoms. Their rate is ... 

Annihilation Two atoms or molecular entities both in an excited electronic state interact often (usually upon collision) to produce one atom or molecular entity in an excited electronic state and another in its ground electronic state. This phenomenon is sometimes referred to as energy pooling. 

Energy Pooling in Collisions Between Excited Atoms... 

Optical pumping with lasers may bring an appreciable fraction of all atoms within the volume of a laser beam passing through a vapor cell into an excited electronic state. This allows the observation of collisions between two excited atoms, which lead to many possible excitation channels where the sum of the excitation energies is accumulated in one of the collision partners. Such energy-pooling processes have been demonstrated for Na + Na, where reactions... 

Energy can be transferred from one object to another. Anyone who has played a game of pool has firsthand experience with energy transfers. When the cue ball strikes the pack, the balls carom off in all directions. The cue ball loses most of its speed, and it may even come to a complete stop. The collision transfers kinetic energy from the cue ball to the other balls. Whereas transfers of energy among pool balls occur when initiated by a pool cue. 

We have specified kinetic energy as the kind of energy which might be involved, but there is no reason why other forms of molecular energy should not play their part, since at the moment of collision the energy is all thrown into the pool for redistribution. 

The FC or Born-Oppenheimer approximation is physically clear if the activation energy barrier is in the Dielectric Continuum. The reacting ion is activated by some collisional or vibrational-librational means from the classical Boltzmann thermal pool, so that the rate of activation is equal to the rate of arrival of energy, which is equal to a characteristic classical electrolyte frequency. The electron transfers when its energy exceeds that of the barrier due to the inertia of the solvent permanent dipoles. Marcus4149 consistently supposed that the medium may be regarded as a dense gas phase with a collision frequency, which in its... 

The vibrational energy levels of the B rio electronic state of I2 were studied by absorption spectroscopy in Exp. 39. In the present experiment, selected vibrational-rotational levels of this state will be populated using a pulsed laser. The fluorescence decay of these levels will be measured to determine the lifetime of excited iodine and to see the effect of fluorescence quenching caused by collisions with unexcited I2 molecules and with other molecules. In addition to giving experience with fast lifetime measurements, the experiment will illustrate a Stem-Volmer plot and the determination of quenching cross-sections for iodine. Student results for different quenching molecules will be pooled and the dependence of the cross sections on the molecular properties of the collision parmers will be compared with predictions of two simple models. 

In order for a chemical reaction to take place, the reactants must collide. It s like playing pool. In order to drop the 8-ball into the corner pocket, you must hit it with the cue ball. This collision transfers kinetic energy (energy of motion) from one bedl to the other, sending the second ball (hopefully) toward the pocket. The collision between the molecules provides the energy needed to break the necessary bonds so that new bonds can be formed. 

The dipole belonging to translational mechanics, and more precisely to the inductive energy subvariety (i.e., kinetic energy), is a model for a large class of objects. Two balls of pool game are only an example in fact, every conple of mechanical objects, not necessarily identical, interacting through a collision is also an example. Both objects do not need to move simultaneously, this is a question of referential one object can be at rest and the other not. The problem of a representation... 

The surroundings include both the pool table and the second baU. The pool table absorbs some of the ball s kinetic energy as the ball rolls down the table. Minute bumps on the table surface cause friction, which slows the ball down by converting kinetic energy to heat (q). The second ball absorbs some of the ball s kinetic energy in the form of work (w) upon collision.
