  2. C2+ + OH → C+ + OH+ C2+ + HF → C+ + HF+ C2+ + HCl → C+ + HCl+ • By the Wigner and von Neumann non-crossing rule, adiabatic potential energy curves for states of the same symmetry cannot cross. • Potential energy curves for states of the same symmetry can approach each other in a narrow region avoided crossing • The charge-transfer process is driven by means of the nonadiabatic interactions in the vicinity of avoided crossings.

  3. Comparison of depth-dose profiles The dose to normal healthy tissue is the least by using carbon-ion therapy. This depth-dose profile is the closest to the desire profile in diagram (a) in terms of tumour coverage, critical organ avoidance and minimised entry channel dosage.

  4. Ion-diatomic collisional system B R A ρϴ C

  5. Semiclassical treatment The projectile follows straight-line trajectories: X v b R ϑ θ ρZ Y The electronic motion is described by the eikonal equation:

  6. Sudden approximation • No appreciable change in the ro-vibrational wavefunction is effected in the time interval in which the electronic transition takes place. • Molecular close-coupling treatment:

  7. Semiclassical formalism • For a given nuclear trajectory and fixed : • The coefficients are subject to the initial condition: X Z’ v • Dynamical couplings: R ρ Z X’

  8. Cross sections • The probability for transition to the final state is: • The cross section for transition to state , for each value of ρ is: • The total cross section is a sum of the partial cross sections:

  9. Franck-Condon approximation • The coefficients are slowly varying functions of ρ it is possible to substitute them with values at the equilibrium distance of the diatomic molecule ρ0 • F0ν is the Franck-Condon factor between the BC and BC+ vibration wave functions at equilibrium geometry for the vibrational level ν=0 and ν, respectively.
