Laser-induced fluorescence of hydrogen via the E,F1Σg+→B1Σu+ transition: Rotational-state-dependent collisional quenching

► Laser-induced fluorescence of H2 via the E-B transition. ► We examine dependence of the collisional quenching rate on the rotational state. ► The quenching rate is calculated by a Born approximation. ► The calculation agrees with the experimental data.
