✦ Synopsis

A hígh pressure microwavc discharge source operating tvith a dilute mixture of 02 in He kas been uscd to produce a supcrsonic nozzle bcam of 0 atoms seeded in He. Ttiis source has been used to sfrrdy the reactive scattering of Cl atoms with c/z and CS2 malccules at an initial translatìonal energy E = 38 kJ mDI -l. Yekxity bistritrutions of reactive scattering were measurcd over u widc angular range by cross-corrclation time-of-flight analysjs. The 0 f Cl2 reaction proceeds via 3 shorflivcd collision complex while the 0 + CS2 regction follotvs a stripping mechanism. * Con-y et al. [ 1.5) will give a full acmunt of this work.
