A study of the detailed dynamics of the collision-induced dissociation of CsBr by the visualization of elementary process trajectories

A method for studying the detailed dynamics of an elementary process by the visualization of the trajectory of collision of initial particles was suggested. The method has serious advantages compared with graphic processing of the calculated data and provides a high degree of visualization of the calculation results and the possibility of direct comparison between changes in interaction configuration and the energy characteristics of each pair of interacting particles and the total potential energy of a system. The method was used to analyze the detailed dynamics of the collision-induced elementary process of CsBr dissociation. The possibility of elementary process branching because of a change in the sign of the radial component of the generalized momentum of a pair of atoms in a molecule was analyzed.
