Quasiclassical trajectory calculations of differential cross sections and product energy distributions for the N plus OH→NO plus H reaction

A detailed quasiclassical trajectory on the N+OH(v=0, j=0,1,5,10)-> NO+H reaction is reported at four collision energies from 0.01 to 0.5 eV. The vibrational distributions which are statistical and the angular distributions, which present a forward/backward symmetry, are consistent with the formation of a long-lived intermediate complex. Our results show globally a weak dependence of the angular and rovibrational distributions on the rotational excitation of OH, but a more pronounced effect of the collision energy.
