Abstract
We have investigated thermal electron capture processes in the mixture s of halomethanes and carbon dioxide (in excess) using the electron sw arm method. We have found that except the very slow second order react ions (single collision) there occur processes involving homo- (RX)(2) or heterogeniouos (RXCO2) van der Waals complexes (multi-body pressure dependent processes) which are at least a few times faster at atmosph eric pressures. The mechanism and the kinetics of some of these proces ses are presented.
