## Abstract The reflected shock tube technique with multipass absorption spectrometric detection of OHβradicals at 308 nm, corresponding to a total path length of 1.749 m, has been used to study the reaction H~2~O + M β H + OH + M between 2196 and 2792 K using 0.3, 0.5, and 1% H~2~O, diluted in Kr.

β¦ Synopsis
The thermal dissociation of COS was investigated in shock waves with argon as carrier gas. The concentration was varied between 0.05 and 0.5% COS in argon, the total density from 2.5 x 10-5mole/cm3 to 2.5 x 10-3mole/cm3. Temperatures between 1500'K and 3100'K were applied.
For the reaction
the rate constant was found to be
in the low pressure range of the unimolecular reaction and in the high pressure range.
