Abstract
We have studied the fate of selectively excited vibrational and rotati onal NH/ND(c(1) Pi,nu,J) states in inelastic collisions with O-2, The excited states were produced in a two-step procedure by first photolyz ing hydrazoic acid to yield NH/ND(a), which then was excited to the c state. This work presents rate data for rotational relaxation in the c ,nu=0 states, overall quenching of rotational states, intersystem cros sing to the A(3) Pi state, vibrational relaxation of the ND(c,nu=1) st ate, and quenching of the vibrational ND(A,nu=0-3) states. Additionall y the vibrational distributions of the A state products were determine d as a function of rotation of the c states.
