Phys. Rev. A 63, 022709 (2001) [5 pages]Charge-transfer cross sections in collisions of ground-state Na atoms with H+ at low-eV collision energiesReceived 26 June 2000; published 12 January 2001 Cross sections for nonradiative charge transfer in H++Na(3s) collisions at energies less than or equal to 40 eV have been calculated using a fully quantum-mechanical approach. The calculated cross sections agree well with the experimental data in the entire energy range, but do not agree with other calculations at low energies. We discuss possible causes of this difference. Using the calculated cross sections, the rate coefficients at temperatures below 20 000 K have been calculated, and compared with those of other theoretical calculations. © 2001 The American Physical Society URL:
