There is no consensus on the magnitude and shape of the charge transfer cross section in low-energy H++H2 collisions, in spite of the fundamental importance of these collisions. Experiments have thus been carried out in the energy range 15≤E≤5000 eV. The measurements invalidate previous recommended data for E≤200 eV and confirm the existence of a local maximum around 45 eV, which was predicted theoretically. Additionally, vibrationally resolved cross sections allow us to investigate the evolution of the underlying charge transfer mechanism as a function of E
