Notes. Columns 2 and 3 give results from this work at v = 104m /s. For direct comparison with l-changing crosssections from Table 4 of HBvR, results are also given for two states at v = 10 457m / s corresponding to the average collision velocity at T = 5000 K. Column 4 gives our results and Col. 5 the results from HBvR.
