Radiative and collisional decay of NBr(b1Σ+,v')

Article abstract of DOI:10.1063/1.449908

NBr(b¹Σ⁺, ν'), υ'<*>10 is produced by photolysis of BrN3 at 193 nm.Using this method, radiative decay rates for υ' = 0, 2, and 5 of the b¹Σ⁺, state were measured and were found to be ca. 2.5 * 10⁴ s^-1.The rate constant for NBr ( b ) quenching by collisions with BrN3 was determined to be 1.57 * 10^-10 cm³ s^-1 for υ' = 0 and slightly faster for υ'<*> 0.The nascent vibration distribution of NBr(b¹Σ⁺) produced by 193 nm photolysis of BrN3 was found to be inverted, with a maximum population in υ' = 2.The overall quantum yield for production of NBr ( b¹Σ⁺) by the photodissociation is 0.12.
