Phys. Rev. Lett. 83, 4041–4044 (1999)Full Ambiguity-Free Quantum Treatment of D++H(1s) Charge Transfer Reactions at Low EnergiesReceived 18 May 1999; published in the issue dated 15 November 1999 Cross sections for the nonresonant charge transfer process D++H(1s)→D(1s)+H+ at low energies are calculated in hyperspherical coordinates. The method is free from all the inherent ambiguities associated with the conventional Born-Oppenheimer approach, such as the incorrect asymptotic energies and spurious couplings. However, like the Born-Oppenheimer approach, we show that hyperspherical potential curves and coupling terms have to be calculated only once to obtain results for all partial waves. Feshbach and shape resonances of HD+ near the H(1s) threshold are also calculated. © 1999 The American Physical Society URL:
