[en] A velocity selected molecular beam of D2O was crossed with a nozzle beam of Ar and the angular distribution of the scattered D2O was measured mass spectrometrically. By varying the velocity of the D2O beam, the differential cross section was measured at two collision energies. The experimental results were compared with synthetic differential cross sections calculated from Lennard-Jones and Kihara-Stockmayer trial potentials to determine potential parameters. Implications for the H2O pair potential are discussed
