Abstract
The lifetimes of N-2(C(3)Pi(u), upsilon' = 0) and N-2(+)(B(2)Sigma(u)( +), upsilon' = 0) states and rates of their quenching by molecules of N-2, O-2, H-2, CO and H2O have been determined by emission spectroscop y. To excite the states involved a nanosecond pulse repetitive high-vo ltage discharge was used. (C) 1998 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
