Chemical Reactions that Produce Electronically Excited Metal Atoms.

Abstract

Techniques have been developed for the study of highly exoergic reactions of boron and carbon atoms. Merged flow, diffusion and single collision experiments were performed to measure total reaction cross sections, chemiluminescence cross sections and population distributions in the electronically excited states of reaction products. The basic purpose of these studies was to gather a body of systematic data in order to understand the reaction mechanism and the production of electronically excited states for this important class of non-metal atom reactions.
