Atomic and Molecular Processes in Atmospheric Environments
Abstract
Brief research summaries are given for the following topics: Radiative properties of simple atoms and molecules for optical discrimination studies; Dissociative excitation of CO(A singlet Pi) by electron impact on CO2; Infrared emission from recombination and energy transfer processes of air species; Clean air chemistry and chemiluminescence; Energy partitioning in metal atom chemi-excitation; Neutral-neutral reactions in crossed beams; Processes involving metastable species; Ion-molecule reactions and excitation processes in a fast flow system; Reactions of metal atoms with ions in magnetically confined NO(+) plasmas; Ion-molecule reactions at elevated temperatures; Afterglow studies of the population of excited atomic and molecular states by vibrational energy transfer; Time of flight experiments; Optical interferometer studies of berium releases; Optical photometer studies of nightglow ionospheric modification; Measurement of the ionized and neutral constituents of the atmosphere; Distribution of gases in the mesosphere; and Semiempirical methods for estimating reaction rates.
