Abstract

The collisional photochemistry of diacetylene triplet metastable state (C4H2*) with acetylene in nitrogen and helium buffers is studied in a reaction tube attached to a pulsed nozzle. The photolysis laser counterpropagates the molecular expansion through the reaction tube exciting the C4H2'Au-I&+ 2'06'0 transition at 231.4 nm. Efficient intersystem crossing forms the triplet state from which reaction occurs. The finite 8 mm length of the tube serves to ...
