Reactive collisions between electrons and BeT+

In order to model and diagnose the low-temperature edge plasmas, a complete database for electron-impact collision processes is required for molecular species containing beryllium and hydrogen. Dominant elementary processes in cold ionized gases are dissociative recombination, elastic collisions, vibrational excitation, vibrational de-excitation and dissociative excitation. In this study, using the stepwise version of the Multichannel Quantum Defect Theory, cross sections and rate coefficients have been obtained for reactions induced on BeT+. A set of vibrational resolved rate coefficients for BeT+ cations’ reactive collisions with electrons below to the ion dissociation threshold is provided. The incident electron energy range is 10-3 – 2.7 eV and the electron temperature range is 100 – 5000 K.
