Scientific paper

The initial reaction in the ion-molecule synthesis of ammonia in dense interstellar clouds, N(+) + H2 yields NH(+) + H, is studied using phase space theory. It is found that the reaction is too slow at a temperature of 10 K to explain the ammonia abundance in cool dense interstellar clouds. For a nonthermal translational distribution of N(+) formed from the He(+)-N2 reaction, the results show that the rate at which N(+) is converted into NH(+) is dependent on the nascent N(+) spin-orbit state distribution.
