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 compare

✦ Synopsis
The rateconstants ofquenchingof CH(A*A) byCHBr3 and CH(A*A and B%) by NO, (CHS)INH, (($H5)2NHand (CH&N were measured by usmg a direct time-resolved technique at 290 K. CH (A 2A and B 'Z-) radicals were produced by laser photolysis of CHBr, at 266 nm. A mechanism for this photolysis process is proposed. The time-resolved emissions CH(A-rX) and CH(B+X) were monitored as a function of time using a fast digital storage oscilloscope coupled with a microcomputer. For quencher CHBrx, the preliminary result shows that the quenching rate constant decreases with increasing rotational quantum number ofCH(A ?A, v'=O). A comparison of the quenching rate constant of CH(A) with that of CH(B) is given.

Electronic relaxation rate constants for specific rotational levels of CH (A 'A and B \*Z-) have been measured. In contrast to similar measurements made earlier for other hydrides, the results obtained in the present work show an increase in the quenching efficiency upon rotational excitation. The e

An experimental method based on the detection of the enhancement of chemi-ionization following the pulsed laser excitation of CH\*(A \*A, B 'Z-) radicals is described. This approach provides conclusive and direct obserwtions of chemiionization reactions involving Cil\*(A 2~, B',r-) radicals. The re
