Models at High Energies

Bates et have considered a mechanism involving two collisions A strikes B, B strikes C, and then A captures B, for the case of a simple 

Ivanov and Sayasov have published a quantum mechanical version of the single-collision mechanism discussed classically by Light and Horrocks. Reasonable agreement is found for the reactions Ar (H2,H)ArH, Ar (D2,D)ArD, D2 (Ar,D)ArD+,and 

In conclusion, it may be observed that the study of chemistry at ultra-high energies is still at a very rudimentary stage. It is of definite interest that atomic-rearrangement collisions may still occur at collision energies

For a RRKM calculation without any approximations, the complete vibrational/rotational Flamiltonian for the imimolecular system is used to calculate the reactant density and transition state s sum of states. No approximations are made regarding the coupling between vibration and rotation. Flowever, for many molecules the exact nature of the coupling between vibration and rotation is uncertain, particularly at high energies, and a model in which rotation and vibration are assumed separable is widely used to calculate the quantum RRKM k(E,J) [4,16]. To illustrate this model, first consider a linear polyatomic molecule which decomposes via a linear transition state. The rotational energy for tire reactant is assumed to be that for a rigid rotor, i.e. 

In the present section we present a theoretical description for the continuum-distorted-wave eikonal-initial-state (CDW-EIS) model. This model is one of the most advanced and complete perturbative theories of heavy particle collisions which has been formulated to date. The reasons for the success of this model particularly in describing ionization at high energies in the MeV/amu range are that ... 

Further, if the SU 2) theory for B potentials are right-handed chiral and the SU 2) theory for 4 ( potentials are left-handed chiral, then we see that a chiral theory at high energies can become a vector theory at low energies. The converse may also be true in another model. 

The principal purpose here has been to demonstrate what sort of electroweak interaction physics may be required for the existence of an 0(3)b theory of quantum electrodynamics on the low-energy physical vacuum. This demonstrates that an extended standard model of electroweak interactions can support such a theory with the addition of new physics at high energy. 

For these reasons there are reasons to consider this model, or a similar variant, as a reasonable model for the unification of gauge fields outside of gravitation. The extension of the gauge symmetries for electromagnetism at high energy, even if the field is 17(1) on the physical vacuum, leads to a standard model with a nice symmetry between chiral fields, and this symmetry is further contained in GUT. 

At high energy, the impinging ion has enough energy to break all bonds in its local environment. This is the collision cascade regime, which can be accurately modeled. 

In the avoided crossing region the experimental RKR potential of the state and the "essentially experimental" potential of the state are used to determine the crossing distance R(- and the coupling matrix element T -. in the two state approximation. These quantities are relevant to the evaluation of the total charge transfer cross section at high energy (e.g. in the Landau-Zener model).
