We present total charge transfer for H++Li collisions and total and state-selected cross sections for charge transfer and excitation in Li++H collisions in the energy range 25–2500 eV/amu. The calculation employs quantal and semiclassical treatments and a molecular expansion in terms of both ab initio and model potential orbitals. Isotopic dependence of Li++H charge-transfer cross section is studied.
