Imaging the final states of cold He-H2+ half-collisions reveals significant differences in the rotational distributions when using either para or ortho H2+ as a collision partner. We provide an explanation of the observed disparity in terms of the dominating influence of Feshbach resonances in the vibrationally excited states of the two spin isomers. To this end, we numerically simulate the half-collision process, utilising a state of the art potential[1] and full coupled channels calculations[2]. We substantiate our analysis by studying the difference in behaviour under interchange of either one or both hydrogen atoms with deuterium.
