Abstract

A new type of atom-molecule radiative collision is discussed. A photon may be absorbed during an atom-molecule collision and its energy distributed among atomic excitation, vibrational excitation and translational energy of both products. Radiative collisions Na + N2 are analyzed. The process is closely related to elecironic-to-vibrational energy transfer.
