Abstract

Saturated laser induced fluorescence is used for the sensitive detection of radicals in high pressure gases. The method and its application to a series of addition reactions of HO radicals in the high pressure regime are described. Experiments between 1 and 150 bar of the bath gas He allow for falloff extrapolations to the high pressure limit of the recombination reactions. Limiting rate constants (in cm3 molecule-1 s-1) of 2.2X10-11 for HO+HO→H2O2, of 3.3X10-11 for HO+NO→HONO, of 7.5X10-11 for HO+NO 2,HONO2, and of 9.7X10-13 for HO+CO→HOCO (and H+CO2) are derived at 298 K.
