✦ Synopsis

The OCS'(A 'lTrrR 'Up: Q= l/2,3/2) emission resultmg from the Ar+('P,,,)

+OCS charge-transfer reaction has been reexamined in a low-pressure flowing afterglow. The fluorescence channel in the the 0" level was found to be open for rotationally excited levels up to Jz 170 ( z 5500 cm-'). The rotational distribution of OCS+ (A 'II,: 0") could be characterized by a Boltzmann temperature of 4300+ 500 K for the R= 312 component, mdicating that 55 f 7% of the excess energy is deposited into the rotation.

OCS+ (x-z) emission has heen observed from the thermal energy charge transfer reaction between N; ions and OCS molecules. The rotational temperatures of the OCS+ (A 21T,: O") state were estimated to be 23OOk 300 K for D = 3/2 and 3300 + 500 K for O= 112, by assuming a single Boltzmann distribution.
