Abstract
Time-resolved behaviour of vibrational populations following optical e xcitation in CO is investigated. Measurements of CO first overtone inf rared emission are performed. A one-dimensional kinetic model is devel oped to describe the time-resolved behaviour of infrared optical signa ls from CO ground state vibrational levels. The available CO V-V rate constants are tested. A simple model of vibration-to-electronic transf er is proposed to improve the agreement between experimental results a nd numerical simulations.
