Properties of exact and centrifugal sudden translational--internal reduced S matrices are given for general molecule--molecule collisions. The structure of energy-dependent and kinetic cross sections appropriate for linearized kinetic theory are described, both exactly and within the CS approximation. Connection with analogous total-J coupling scheme expressions is made in the Appendix.
