✦ Synopsis
Quenching of electronically excited CH and NO radicals in methane/air flames between 30 and 70 Tot-r has been studied using the time decay of laser-induced fluorescence. Rates of 0.3 and 1 lo' Torr-' were determined for A2A CH and A*E+ NO respectively at a temperature near 1700 K. These are compared with rates calculated using previously determined bimolecular quenching cross sections. The agreement is good, within 20 to 30%. The temperature dependence of Hz0 quenching of CH and ofN, and CO, quenching of NO need further investigation.

Cross sections for collisional quenching of CH A 2A, u' =O were measured at 1300 K for a variety of collision partners. A laser pyrolysis/laser fluorescence technique was used, involving rapid heating by a pulsed CO2 laser and direct time decay of fluorescence excited by a pulsed dye laser. Where co
The collisional quenching of OH A'Z(u' = 1) by Hz0 was determined from laser-induced fluorescence measurements in the burned-gas region of stoichiometric H,/OJAr flames at low pressure ( 19 and 38 Torr). The collisional quenching was measured as a function of the initial laser-populated rotational l
