Abstract
The absolute value of the cross section for the abstraction reaction between fast H atoms and H2O has
been determined experimentally at a mean collision energy of 2.46 eV. The OH population distribution
at the same mean energy has also been determined. The new measurements are compared with state-ofthe-
art quantum mechanical and quasiclassical scattering calculations on the most recently developed
potential energy surface.
