Semiempirical breakdown curves of C2N(+) and C3N(+) molecules; application to products branching ratios predictions of physical and chemical processes involving these adducts
We constructed semiempirical breakdown curves (BDC) for C2N, C3N, C2N+ and C3N+ molecules. These BDC, which are energy dependent dissociation branching ratios (BR) curves, were used to predict products branching ratios for various processes leading to the formation of C2N(+) and C3N(+) excited adducts. These processes, of astrochemical interest, are neutral-neutral and ion-molecule reactions, diss
