这篇教程综述考察了这样一个命题，即矢量属性比传统的标量测量更能揭示控制分子间碰撞中非弹性能量交换的潜在势能面。最近令人振奋的实验进展以六个精选案例研究的形式进行了总结。将提取的新信息与互补理论的预测结果进行了比较。讨论了可能的未来前景和进一步进展的有希望的途径。这种治疗应该吸引所有对控制分子间相互作用的力量感兴趣的人，特别是在气相碰撞方面。
This tutorial review examines the proposition that vector properties reveal more about the underlying potential energy surfaces controlling the inelastic exchange of energy in intermolecular collisions than conventional scalar measurements. Exciting recent experimental progress is summarized in the form of six selected cases studies. The new information that has been extracted is compared with the predictions of complementary theory. Likely future prospects and promising avenues for further progress are discussed. The treatment should appeal to all those with interests in the forces governing intermolecular interactions, especially in gas-phase collisions.
