    Author: Bulut N, Castillo JF, Aoiz FJ, Bañares L.

    Abstract:
    Time-dependent real wave packet (RWP) and quasiclassical trajectory (QCT) calculations have been carried out to study the H(+) + LiH reaction on the ab initio potential-energy surface of Martinazzo et al. [J. Chem. Phys., 2003, 119, 11241]. Total initial state-selected and final state-resolved reaction probabilities for the two possible reaction channels, H(2)(+) + Li and LiH + H(+), have been calculated for total angular momentum J=0 at a broad range of collision energies. Integral cross sections and thermal rate coefficients have been calculated using the QCT method and from the corresponding J=0 RWP reaction probabilities by means of a capture model. The calculated thermal rate coefficients are found to be nearly independent of temperature in the 100-500 K interval with a value of approximately 10(-9) cm(3) s(-1), which is in good agreement with estimates used in evolutionary models of early-Universe lithium chemistry. The RWP results are found to be in good agreement overall with the corresponding QCT calculations.
