Abstract
When reactants of heavy reduced mass yield products having light reduced mass, constraints arise on accessible product rotational states from the energy conservation requirements of product (recoil) orbital angular momentum. For Ba + HI â BaI + H this effect is particularly marked and leads to a narrow distribution of jBaI states in crossed beam experiments.
