The charge transfer in collisions of C{sup 2+} ions with the CO molecule and the OH radical has been studied theoretically by means of ab initio quantum chemistry molecular methods followed by a semiclassical dynamical treatment in the keV collision energy range. The comparison of the cross sections calculated for these two collision systems exhibits interesting features with regard to the anisotropy of these processes and the influence of the vibration of the molecular target.
