## Abstract Methods for analyzing reaction rate data obtained from fluorescent decays distorted by flow effects are discussed, with particular reference to the measurement of relaxation rates in flowing mixtures containing reactive species by the laserβinduced fluorescence technique.

β¦ Synopsis
The relative relaxation rates of vibrational lcvcl populations following establishment of a Boltzmann vibrational distribution by rapid vibration-vibration energy transfer are shown to depend on the nature and extent of the departure from equilibrium. The only kinetic information obtainable under such conditions is :, the rela..ation time of the vibrational enern. The implications for interpretation of Iaser-induced vibrational tluorescence ma_xrements arc cmphasized.
