Selectivity of weak intermolecular forces and precursor state of elementary oxidation reactions, a new insight on Ne* + N2 chemiionization
Abstract This paper reports on the collision dynamics of N2 with metastable Ne* promoting chemiionizations, prototype of barrier-less oxidation reactions of great interest for fundamental and applied research. Extending guidelines presented in previous papers for the atom–atom case, an innovative tr...

Abstract This paper reports on the collision dynamics of N2 with metastable Ne* promoting chemiionizations, prototype of barrier-less oxidation reactions of great interest for fundamental and applied research.
