Statistical characteristics of the motion of a pair of heavy ions in non-convex cavities of complicated geometry with fixed crosspieces and charges

Using the method of classical trajectories, the motion of a pair of ions Cs+ and Cl- in three non-convex closed cavities of complicated geometry containing neutral cylindrical crosspieces and charged spherical nuclei is simulated. The collisions of the ions with the cavity boundary, crosspieces, and nuclei are supposed to be inelastic. The signs of the charges of the nuclei are varied. In each cavity, in one of the calculation series, the nuclei are assumed to be shielded (to carry charges smaller than 1 a.u. in absolute value), whereas in another calculation series, the possibility of the mutual neutralization of an ion and an oppositely charged nucleus at their encounter is taken into account. The statistics of various events, such as the stickings of ions to nuclei, neutralizations of ions and nuclei, collisions of ions with obstacles, recombinations of ions, and dissociations of the CsCl ionic-bond molecule are analyzed.
