Abstract
The angular and velocity distribution of CO2 product from the reaction OH + CO at 14.1 kcal/mole collision energy has been obtained in a cro ssed molecular beam study. The reaction is found to proceed through an osculating HOCO complex living about one rotational period. About 65% of the available energy goes into product translation.
