Figure 4. Λ-doublet population ratios for the O(³P)+D₂ reaction at E_coll=15 and 20 kcal mol⁻¹.

(a) QM results at E_coll=15 kcal mol⁻¹; (b) QM results at E_coll=20 kcal mol⁻¹; (c) QCT results at E_coll=15 kcal mol⁻¹; (d) QCT results at E_coll=20 kcal mol⁻¹; ‘QM' and ‘QCT' represent the ratio of the ICSs calculated on the A′ and A′′ PES, whereas ‘corr-QM' and ‘corr-QCT' are the Π_A′/Π_A′′ ratios after making use of the respective weight factors. The experimental results from ref. 6 are denoted as ‘Exp'. No error bars were reported in ref. 6.
