In this work are presented results of the experimental study of state selected reactions of H+ and N+(3PJa) ions with molecular hydrogen H2(J = 0, 1) at temperatures in the range 10 - 100 K using 22-pole rf ion trap apparatus. These reactions are important for the formation of interstellar trihydrogen cations and ammonia. To determine the temperature of ions, calibration measurements of the Doppler broadening of spectral lines using N2+ + Ar Ar+ + N2 laser induced reaction and rate of the ternary association He+ + 2He He2+ + He were performed. Both ternary and radiative channels of the H+ + H2(J) association reaction were observed at hydrogen number densities in the range 1012 - 1014 cm-3 and 1011 - 1012 cm-3 respectively. Obtained temperature dependences at 11 - 33 K demonstrate substantial role of the H2 rotational energy, results cannot be explained with the existed theories of the stabilization of collisional complexes. Measurements of the rate coefficient of N+(3PJa) + H2(J) reaction at different ortho fractions of H2 show dependence on internal energy of both reactants. State specific rate coefficients of the reaction of nitrogen and hydrogen ions were derived. The adiabatic model and collisional relaxations of N+(3PJa) fine structure levels were considered.
