Title: First-principles dynamics of collisional intersystem crossing: resonance enhanced quenching of C(1D) by N 2

Intersystem crossing is a common and important nonadiabatic process in molecular systems. Revealed with a first-principles investigation, the quenching of C(1D) by N2is efficient due to multiple passagesvialong-lived collisional resonances, despite relatively small spin–orbit couplings.
