Abstract

Energy transfer processes of highly vibrationally excited I₂(X) v equals 23, J equals 57 have been investigated using stimulated emission pumping techniques. Inelastic collisions with O₂, H₂O, Cl₂, and Ar have been characterized. These energy transfer processes are important in the dissociation of I₂ in the COIL system. Spectrally and temporally resolved measurements of vibrational and rotational energy transfer have been carried out in room temperature static cells. The results of these experiments have been used to develop a kinetics model to simulate the experimental results and to predict rate constants. This model is based on an energy corrected sudden approximation and includes vibrational energy transfer.
