Optical Interference Phenomenon

Abstract

Experimental measurements of the formation of vibrationally excited ozone resulting from O + O2 + M to O3(*) + M, M = O2, N2 are reported. The bulk rate constant and the exothermicity of the reaction going into various vibrational states of ozone are given. The rate for vibrational relaxation O3(*) + M to O3 + M was also measured. Separate experiments on the absorption of CO2 9.6 micrometer laser lines by ozone are described as well as a measurement of CO2 relaxation by ozone.
