Abstract

The atom-diatom time independent quantum reactive scattering program ABC implemented on the COMPCHEM section of the EGEE computing Grid has been used to compute isotope effects for the nitrogen atom - nitrogen molecule reactions. Exact J= 0 quantum scattering calculations were performed for both the 14N + 28N2and 14N + 30N2reactions on two different potential energy surfaces. Related reaction thresholds, reactive resonances and product distributions are discussed. J-shifting thermal rate coefficients are also calculated for a comparison with the experiment.
