Very low energy cross sections for collision-induced rotational relaxation of I(2) seeded in a supersonic free jet.
We report a study of rotational relaxation of I(2) seeded in He, Ne, and Ar free jets. It is inferred that in the very low collision energy range covered by these experiments the cross section for rotational relaxation is independent of energy.
