Abstract

Estimates of frequency-shift enhancement factors, binary cross sections for spin exchange and spin relaxation, chemical equilibrium constants, and spin-exchange and spin-rotation interactions in van der Waals molecules are presented for alkali-metal atoms interacting with noble-gas atoms. These results are compared to experiments and are also presented for those pairs which have not been studied experimentally.
