Potential Energy Surfaces for Reactions of X Metal Atoms (X = Cu, Zn, Cd, Ga, Al, Au, or Hg) with YH4 Molecules (Y = C, Si, or Ge) and Transition Probabilities at Avoided Crossings in Some Cases
Figure 2
Typical graph of transition probabilities. Energy as a function of the insertion angle , where the two solid lines correspond to the avoided crossing at , and the dashed lines to the probable transitions among potential energy surfaces.
