  The latest molecular data - potential energy curves and Rydberg-valence
interactions - characterising the super-excited electronic states of BF are
reviewed in order to provide the input for the study of their fragmentation
dynamics. Starting from this input, the main paths and mechanisms of BF$^+$
dissociative recombination and vibrational excitation are analysed. Their cross
sections are computed for the first time using a method based on the
multichannel quantum defect theory (MQDT), and Maxwellian rate-coefficients are
calculated and displayed in ready-to-be-used format for low temperature plasma
kinetics simulations.
