An historical overview of the various parameterised forms describing RET processes (fitting laws) is presented. The physical models behind these "laws" are compared. Particular attention is paid to the role of angular momentum constraints and to the energy dependence of the state-to-state cross-sections. Finally it is shown how general trends can be inferred from the topology of the intermolecular potential energy surface.
