Erratum: Observing the stereodynamics of chemical reactions using randomly oriented molecular beams ( Journal of Chemical Physics (2006) 124 (241105))

• A new method is demonstrated to study the stereodynamics of simple chemical reactions that does not require the use of oriented (or aligned) molecular beams or measurements of the orientation state of product molecules. Instead, it is shown that by numerically combining accurate measurements of the state-to-state differential cross section for two or more rotational states of the reagent molecule, the separate contribution from the individual helicity states can be extracted. New molecular beam experiments are conducted for the D+H2→HD+Hreaction that confirm the validity of the method.
