A three-dimensional quantum mechanical study is made of H+H/sub 2/ reactive scattering. The differential and total cross sections as well as the S-matrix elements are obtained from the adiabatic distorted wave model and the Porter--Karplus semi-empirical potential surface. With the initial molecule in the ground rotational state. The energy dependence, rotational state dependence, and other properties of the reaction probabilities and of the cross sections for transition to all possible states of the product molecule are determined.
