Rotational cooling and collisional alignment of ethylene molecules is induced by seeding effects in supersonic expansions with lighter gas carriers such as He and Ne. The dependencies of the degree of alignment on the rotational state, on the final speed of the molecules and on the diffusion angular cone have been characterized by coupling two different experimental methodologies. An application to surface scattering is then demonstrated by measuring stereo-dynamical effect in the adsorption on metallic surfaces

Abstract
Rotational cooling and collisional alignment of ethylene molecules is induced by seeding effects in supersonic expansions with lighter gas carriers such as He and Ne. The dependencies of the degree of alignment on the rotational state, on the final speed of the molecules and on the diffusion angular cone have been characterized by coupling two different experimental methodologies. An application to surface scattering is then demonstrated by measuring stereo-dynamical effect in the adsorption on metallic surfacesFile in questo prodotto:
