On the collision density in recoil hot atom systems. Effect of reactive events

Characteristics of the collisional distribution function for reactive hot atoms in nuclear recoil systems are examined and illustrated for the T + H2 system both unmoderated and moderated with argon. Reaction induced extrema are evident in the collision density of the unmoderated case. For this system depletion of hot atoms from the collisional distribution function due to reactive events is reflected significantly in the product yields even at high moderation. © 1973.
