Nitrous Acid Formation and Effects on Optical Systems in the 1-15 Micron Region.

Abstract

Nitrous acid molecules have been shown to be formed from ion-molecule reactions rapidly enough to satisfy observed formation times following a sea level nuclear burst. The possible implications of the polyatomic molecules as infrared emitters/absorbers are pointed out. (Author)
