Coordinate system adopted to calculate the energy transferred to a PAH via electronic excitation by ion collisions. The molecule is modeled as a disk with radius R and thickness d. The trajectory of the incoming particle is identified by the angle ϑ, while the angle α corresponds to the diagonal of the disk.
